so my friends use snap (im not the biggest fan but it looks fun enough) and i want to use it too to yk yeah yk like 🤫 but im kinda concerned about privacy type shii 🥀 i was considering putting the official app on a work profile, but i thought that it would be good to get a third party client anyway

EDIT: ouu shii im getting mass downvoted but pretty understandable 🥹

    Third party apps haven’t been a thing for a while, people were saving snaps without notifying the user who sent the pictures, resulting in the whole thing going against their purpose (and why they got popular - mostly sending nudes because they disappeared).

    So they cracked down pretty hard.

    In terms of privacy, assume nothing on the platform is private.

    Following for interest. It’s the most sketchy social media app I linger on to just to keep in touch with a small handful of folks. It’d be nice to find an alternative client. Last I checked I don’t think there are any revanced/morphe patches for it, though I should check that again.
