Privacy Debate

Just FYI for both of you, the intent is not to get you to stop using whatever app/client you're currently on or use Discord/Riot/etc. instead of the alternative(s).
I'll throw my hat in the ring by contending there's no reason that you can't install and use two communication apps or more alongside each other.
Now obviously, you might only use a certain app only for contacting a certain person because that's the only way to reach them. You can do this without admitting that it's better, or that what you prefer is worse. If it's shown that you were willing to do this for a single person before, it now becomes a question of how much you value the other as a friend.
I'm assuming that's not the case though, and that you are driven by principles rather than any personal animosity. From what I understand these principles can be boiled down to encryption/security vs convenience. Does this adequately sum things up or is there another angle?
