It's terrible for secure/private communications, it requires hacks that violate the TOS and EULA to modify the client to get rid of ads and change themes, it's not FOSS, and it locks features behind a paywall...

But it does what skype already did, so I'm glad we all have to migrate to the new fad site that strips even more of our dignity and privacy every 10 years that'll die anyway because it offers nothing and has a terrible business model.

And forums was very good for secure communications?
