I am really happy to see Telegram growing. I am one of those people who deleted Whatsapp (and lost touch with 30-40 people and several groups) when Facebook bought it.
So far I have been happy with it, even though only like 5 of my friends use it. Yeah, it may (or may not) have security flaws like many on HN complain, but I would take it anyday over FB owned give-us-all-your-data product.
- lucb1e 11y agoSame here, except the people I wanted to communicate with are either the same or kind enough to install it also. If they don't care about WhatsApp already why should they care about installing Telegram next to it? Doesn't make a difference (to them anyway).
- Rainymood 11y agoWhy did you delete Whatsapp?
- lucb1e 11y agoNot the person you're asking, but for me personally I never wanted it. I installed it because a group in school wanted to kick me from the project because I'm "unreachable" (which meant I had no WhatsApp -- email, telegram, IRC, sms, calling, anything would have worked, but no WhatsApp was a reason to make me fail my year). I was sad that I couldn't uninstall it before Facebook bought it.
