Yes this is a Telegram client and yes it will break the Lemmy’s downvote world record but I still find this one very nice and “actively” maintained. There are not many good Telegram FOSS forks without Google integrations and similar stuff out there.

    “They’re not shady.” Begins to describe the shady shit they do

      How is it “shady” to not want to lose market share and keep illegal stuff off of it?

      You could argue it’s “shitty” (perhaps, but it is their servers after all) but I don’t find it shady.

        Market share shouldn’t be a concern with encrypted chat. If it is then I don’t trust it.

        If you’re making an encrypted chat, you’re going to have illegal things on it. If only the chat owners have the keys then that shouldn’t be the server owners concern.
