[PSA] Use your display name to help motivate people away from bad platforms

Example, WhatsApp, use the whole 25 character profile name limit:

Bob Moved To Signal.org
Alice Moved To Signal.org
Charlie Moved To Signal.org

Say Signal.org, not Signal, so they see it is an app.

Use your about section too.

Same on Discord, Steam, Instagram, everywhere.
