Why is Kik the default chat medium on this board? That shit only works on smartphones, which makes longer conversations more difficult. Why not something like Discord or Skype (or even steam chat), which works on both desktop and mobile, so that those of us who aren't on mobile 24/7 aren't inconvenienced?

Get a phone.

I have one. I don't want to switch to it just to chat with you guys. It is incredibly inconvenient to type with swype, rather than using a full, proper keyboard. If you aren't currently out of the house, there is no reason to be on your phone, when you could be using a laptop or desktop.

because it's so easy to make an account as to be almost risk-free. plus it's tailored to phones and readily usable on them, unlike some other things that give some people problems.

install an android emulator

>>24789889

And if you are out of the house, there is no reason to be browsing 4chan.

thumbs up haha u got it
>>
Honestly I have both Kik and discord. I have a Skype but rarely use it
>>
>>24789835
kik is easy to dispose of if I wanna talk to people anymore
Skype is trash
discord is for friends only, not retards on 4chan
>>
>>24789899

Android emulator might be a possibility, but I don't really know of any that don't run like ass.

>>24789965

SwiftKey is not really much faster than Google Keyboard, which is predictive and has swype-like typing just the same. Regardless, neither is as fast as a physical keyboard.

>>24790002

Eh, I browse it on the bus, since I have nothing better to do. But when I get back home from work and classes, I'm generally on my laptop, which makes more sense.

>>24790097

I use Discord for retards on 4chan, and Steam for friends.
>>
it actually doesn't make much sense that people browse /soc/ on their phones because the only way to join kik groups now is by scanning the code - and you can't do that off of your own screen. With its room limits and shitty scan to join mechanism, kik is becoming a shitter and shittier option. Discord, on the other hand, is available on both platforms and doesn't have room limits, etc.
>>
because 80% of the people on soc are fucking millenials who live by staring at their phones
>>
>>24792422
This.
They literally don't know how to use anything else.

get blue stacks
