What is with these headlines these days… “Fueling a slowdown”.

Am I the only one that hates third-party clients for Desktop? They all have terrible UI and UX. Firefox + UBlock + Youtube is the way to go. For the phone it’s NewPipe or Grayjay.

It’s not even encrypted except for encryption at rest. What are you talking about?

Telegram was never safe because it’s not encrypted. Use something encrypted and open-source, so you don’t need to rely on their promises and service.

Signal is the most popular alternative. Others are Threema, Matrix, Session.

The coal is still left why exactly? Besides, neuclear is perfecly climate neutral.

What do you mean? Hypersonic are a multitude faster than 1200 km/h.

Are you trying to lecture me on what I’m doing? I know very well myself what I’m doing. I’m here for the 5 communities there are and on Reddit for the rest.

This has nothing to do with privacy either. First of all Telegram is not a private messenger. Secondly, this is a about public forums and groups called Channels. This has nothing to do with backdoors eithe. They are simply asking them to do moderation on chats they already have access too.

That’s why he hired an economist as his minister of defense.

Surely you will

Dumbass didn’t encrypt the chats and didn’t do moderation according to local laws. If Facebook did the same as his company did, Mark Zuckerberg would share his fate.

This is unrelated to privacy. Telegram isn’t even a private messenger…

Only 50k? I thought it would be much more than that. Didn’t know Lemmy was still this small after all these years.

You have to go well outside the US to find reliable and neutral news. They don’t know about it or are in denial.
