    Telegram is better than WhatsApp. At least it has a decent Linux client, and all clients are open source. WhatsApp has neither.

      Unless you’re constantly using secret chats all your data is stored in plain text… This is actually worse than WhatsApp

      Maybe better client and more features. But Russians have full access to servers and messages. They could read whatever they want. It’s a fact that proved during war that Russia started in Ukraine.

        This is nonsense. The Founders of Telegram are exiles from Russia.
