This is not true.
While I would never trust Telegram with sensitive data, their desktop client is by far the best IM desktop client I have ever tried. It's feature rich, native and beats Slack, Teams and any of the web/electron based clients.
- RMPR 6y agoThe changelogs show an almost feature parity between the desktop https://desktop.telegram.org/changelog https://desktop.telegram.org/changelog and the mobile https://github.com/Telegram-FOSS-Team/Telegram-FOSS/blob/HEAD/Changelog.md https://github.com/Telegram-FOSS-Team/Telegram-FOSS/blob/HEA... which lead me to think that whoever wrote this article didn't make the right amount of research.
- lozf 6y agoThe Telegram Desktop client is definitely better than others, but it doesn't support E2EE, which is a deal breaker for many. I (and many others) like Telegram for non-sensitive group chats accessible on mobile, laptop or desktop. But when encryption matters, those chats stay on Signal.
