I’m a student, ALL my friends use WhatsApp, you want to talk with me? Signal.

I wish I could do this. Facebook Messenger group chat is the platform of choice for organizing group projects at my university, and obviously I can't refuse to communicate with classmates for assignments. I tried suggesting other platforms but practically no one is interested. Other communication, I direct them to email or Matrix.
