Start with a Signal and Discord bridge, they are very stable. Later perhaps you can get WhatsApp and Telegram working. I know it doesn't bring the other people over, but it's very convenient to have them in one app on your side.

I use Signal almost exclusively. The rest of those I don't trust which doesn't really matter to me because I don't know anyone who uses them anyways.
