I’ve been trying to migrate away from snapchat for years now because everything about it irritates me but I’ve still got like 3 stragglers for whom it is my main form of communication.

    The only other platform I have most of them on is tiktok, which isn’t much better.

    Everyone has whatsapp, but It’d be weird to ask for a phone number out of nowhere. All the groupchats are setup on snapchat as well, so even if I got most people on whatsapp, they’d keep organizing there.

      Definitely an annoying situation, I guess maybe you could try posting about the problems that you see with Snapchat, like with articles and whatnot, whenever you have a chance, and maybe just trying to get them to change their stance on it. For me personally, leaving Snapchat was a privacy and ethics choice - and anyone who wouldn’t respect that, good riddance. I only really have two friends myself. I enjoy it usually. I get to spend lots more time with them, and an exchange have a deeper connection. Its not for everyone though.
