I didn't move to telegram because I want to secretly plan an insurgency. I moved there because of the threat of censorship from big tech. It's way more than a messaging app and incredibly feature rich.
- selykg 6y agoYea, Telegram is a great middle ground.. sort of. It has secure options at least. But importantly doesn't require my phone number to create an account and contact people. But also has a lot of features that are missing in something like Signal. Signal is my preferred option, but I'm not keen on sharing my phone number with everyone.
- darkfirefly 6y agoTelegram doesn't require your phone number? It did for me to sign up.
- selykg 6y agoSorry, you don't need to use your phone number to contact someone. You can just give them your Telegram username. Which is sufficient for me in my use case for Telegram.
