Come talk to me in a year or two when it's found out discord was spying on users for the government and/or selling everyone's data to shady third parties, or being used as a backdoor on systems, and tell me I'd the tradeoff was worth it.
Of course I should have chosen my words more carefully, I understand child posters point about how technical things are hard, but I wasn't addressing a webboard of non-technical users... this is HN.
I only use Linux for many of the same reasons, and I openly acknowledge it's not as "easy" , but there is Morea to the products and services we use than just that, and I think things like the Snowden/Wikileaks revelations of these issues mean that we as techies and general trend leaders in that world need to set a better example on the security and privacy fronts.
