In my opinion, Telegram is more of a social network than a messenger. There are many useful channels and in many countries, it plays an important role in sharing information. If we look at it from this point of view, e2ee does not seem very

It is undoubtedly one of the best media apps out there. What I really like about this project is the attitude of the maintainers towards open software and donations [0]. Kodi is also an alternative that IMO would work better than SMB and VL

The problem is that "maps" in the top bar is also missing. The only way now to search for a map is going to maps.google.com and search there. I find it actually very annoying.
