Fair that! Only problem is, I don't have any acquaintances, but if I ever fix that, then maybe we can work on that.

This is always the problem. Internet folk are normal now, they dont have tech skills. In ye olden time we were used to irc and mumble and had no problem switching to other clients if needed. Now people freak out that they need to make a new account somewhere else to leave discord and good luck explaining something like Matrix to them!
