Comment on Ukraine Bans Telegram Use For State, Military Officials.

I know nothing about cyber security, but it’s funny to me that depending on the time of day these comment sections either mostly criticize Telegram or mostly support it. I have no idea what to believe or whether it’s safe for me to use Telegram.

Honestly curious, what was missing on Signal and what was complicated? I can’t even remember the sign up process and never felt I was missing out on features, at least not on features available elsewhere

Oh, I never knew Signal had such humble beginnings. I think you would be very surprised if you ever give it another shot. It’s pretty much “install an app and talk” (with the pretty stuff!]). Never heard of SimpleX, might give it a look someday. Thank you!

I think people want to support encrypted communication apps in general, not Telegram specifically. It’s just that there are many far more secure apps.
