I've been trying to migrate away from snapchat for years now because everything about it irritates me but I've still got like 3 stragglers for whom it is my main form of communication.
You can, however, rename them.

I named them "Advertisement" lol
I've still got like 3 stragglers for whom it is my main form of communication.
Tell them you're moving on. It's not worth it. If they're really your friends, you can find another way. If they don't, they only care about the way you are on Snap. That's hollow.
I had that issue too, and contacted support! Turns out There is this guy from Swaziland, whose name happens to be Team Snapchat (you couldn’t make this shit up). So Mr. Snapchat and Team Snapchat’s accounts keep on colliding with one another… on Snapchat!
I've never given Snapchat access to my contacts ever. It's not only blocked in the app, but also on the system level. And yet I still get connection suggestions "from your contacts". It's infuriating
TikTok did the same shit back when I used it. It's weird because I've always kept my internet life separate from my personal life, and now every app is begging to show my closest friends and family my shitposts, political takes and NSFW content. I'm mostly done with traditional social media by now at this point anyway. I've managed to kick tiktok and am now permanently banned from reddit so hopefully I won't get sucked back in.
I'm pretty sure they connect it to your device ID
If you logged in using a phone number they're referencing you from other people who have you in their contacts.
If you tell them no, they just dick you from another angle
Yup, you just gotta do it once
Dont they train AI on your snaps too now?
