A good news for the open source community.

    Telegram is as bad as Whatsapp. It does not even have E2EE (or the pseudo-crap that was offers). At the end of the day I do not trust them and I think that both of them suck.

      Telegram has E2EE if you use secret chat

        They use a pretty questionable implementation tho. And secret chats are incrodibly limited + not by default.

      Telegram has an Open Source client, WhatsApp doesn’t. That’s one huge difference there.

          At this point every company sucks. (I’m not talking about Telegram, I’m talking about the rest of bigcorps.)

        Not really, the service stils centralised and is not even OS. You can not even trust the service. The client does not matter that much in comparison.

        Whatsapp sucks too.

          I agree, Matrix is better because it is decentralized. But Telegram is clearly better than WhatsApp and Facebook.
