because telegram does not censor and it cannot be shut down

I just downloaded it today. #[2]​ got me set up with ln.tip

Because I don't know anyone that uses Signal and when I try to teach about it, they don't care

I'm using telegram cause it is not run by Facebook. Most of my friends use it, for the ones that didn't I had Twitter. Now that Twitter is dead I'm using SMS with non telegram users.

- public and private group chats - groupchats can be splitted into topics (can improve customer support) - doesnt have to be verified - can use one-time burner sim - media and edit support, voice, video, groupcall - can make chat be deleted after a certain timespan only thing it's not encrypted un...

Just like twitter, they want to resist tirany, but they cant do it legaly.

Un problème cette interdiction au Brésil , la population ne mérite point ce qui se passe..

I use Telegram because it seems to be the most feature-rich messaging app available today. It enjoys enormous network effects, and the company behind it has pushed back on censorship.

Someone needs to make a nostr clone of telegram and call it telgram 🤣. They will never know the difference

I use the bos telegram bot for lightning channel state backups, it's very useful

I didn’t think we were still using telegram

I've never used it and not gonna start. 😃

Telegram me Jack 😂🤌🏼✨

But is Nostr really solution against this?? https://public.substack.com/p/now-theyre-trying-censor-your-text

💯

When will be the day that the DMs within #nostr. take their rightful place.

Leiam! #[0]

You should tell them about Signal.

Lol #[0]

Yep never got the point

I get it, the easiest explanation is that telegram got compromised (gov cooperation). But what about they Gboard or any other touch keyboard that sends everything you type for analysis to improve the usability? Aren't these companies supposed to share the data if requested by the auth?

Indeed, what about #signal

I don’t think Telegram is ban possible. Nobody ever succeeded

people here are still reluctant when it comes to defend themselves against these arbitrary decisions.
