    I switched to Telegram after whatsapp changed their privacy / security in March '21. Basically allowed them to pass all your info to facebook, I believe.
    Telegram is, for me, much better. Quicker, better upload limits, no annoying ads and no strangers trying to sell me apartments or gambling services! I haven't met any tin-foil-hatters there yet, but am sure they are around! 🤣

    I used to use Whatsapp a lot and still have many contacts there.

    I was just reading up on Telegram and your chats are not end to end encrypted unless you select secret chat. Not that that bothers me bcoz I have nothing to hide in a chat. I am very much into keeping my details and surfing habits out of the hands of mobs like facebook though, and use the Firefox container tab if I need to use fb.

    I may dl telegram and use it on my PC for a photo group like here.

    Yea, I wouldn't use Telegram for security purposes. But it does have a lot of nicer features over WhatsApp, and in general is just a lot nicer to use.

    Haven't tried it yet. I use WhatsApp and sometimes Signal. Is Telegram good for pics? Are you thinking of a photographic discussion group?
