    I personally fucking hate it. But my whole friends group use it for events (bad, birthdays), and messenger chat.

    How do you convince ~30 people to switch to something else?

    What app do they switch to?

    Same. I've been attempting to de-Google and stick with FOSS where possible, but only Lawnchair has come close to Nova Launcher, but it's not without its limitations like setting a primary home screen, and better widget padding and removing round corners.

    I'm still experimenting with others, but many are no longer under active development either.

    Because they risk being bullied or left out. Denying their kid a phone only works if all the parents do it.

    Edit: I don't have a solution; maybe an anti-bullshit law that punishes people from spouting bullshit? (Good luck religious folks!)

    But denying a phone may just replace one problem with another.
