    Don’t forget voice calls! It has some rough edges there (my audio doesn’t always connect successfully, etc), but when it works the codec sounds better than a standard phone call and there’s no mass surveillance. I use it in place of phone calls for all the people in my network who have it, including my immediate family.

    My guess is it heavily private and does not have channels

      does not have channels

      except that it does. you can make a public group with a shareable link, and change permissions so that only the admins can post.
