Why don't you use Telegram?

I don't understand this meme. This app is even blocked in russia for refusing to give up users data to the police.

I have no friends

Its an app adopted by furries

Because the device platform is compromised.

>blocked
Not really. You fell for the FSB psyop.

I don't use either one because I don't have any friends but from a technical point of view I don't see any reason why you would pick Telegram over Signal. Telegram rolling their own crypto should be a clear sign telling you to stay away.

requires an account

Yes, much better

What's the difference between Telegram and Telegram X?

look and feel

I use Riot.
Only requires username and password. No email, no phone number

yeah the russians use ICQ now

Hmm never heard of that platform before, I'll have to check it out.

because superior free alternatives exist

An instant messenger nobody else uses doesn't sound very useful.

Because me and all the people that matter in my life are running an XMPP server for private comms.

bloat

I have things to hide so I use Signal.

I use it, sadly I am the only one in all of the people I know. In my country, people use it a lot for illegal stuff.
Can natively run on GNU/Linux, Android, and Windows. Can natively run on tablets without SIM cards. Much more functionality than whatsapp.

what do you guys think of firechat or serval mesh?

>requires a mobile number
CIA nigger botnet

Because I use signal as do the people I talk to. Nobody uses Telegram

Runs matrix protocol. E2E encrypted, decentralised etc.

I use email.

I do, but I don't really care for it. Not E2E by default and looks ass.

yeah, that's not safe at all

>needs phone number
>botnet permissions
>promoted by faggots
>ohshi op is a faggot

but I do use telegram

What are some good groups?

My friends use Whatsapp.

because it doesn't respect my freedom.

I do because muh stickers.

Because I have no one to message.

>tfw facebooks whatsapp has default end to end encryption while telegram has not

also it uses a proprietary server with homemade encryption which is the dumbest choice possible. anyone using telegramto I shall congratulate. you can't get dumber

>Have 30 contacts in my phone. Friends, family and work related
>29 of them show up in Whatsapp. The missing one is a landline number
>3 show up in Telegram
That's why.

Now you know who in your contacts is a furry

I do. And i made all my friends use it too

Is it stable?

Are there people outside of furries and cryptocurrency faggots who use it?

>not using LINE to speak to りんな

post cool russian channels to follow.

Because there's not a person alive that I have any desire to stand around chatting with like a trained monkey. Other people are a waste of time.
