Definitely not Telegram. Please stop suggesting people use this fucking disgrace of an application.

I agree, do not trust russian based software because they definitely install backdoors.

I mean, so do US companies, but it’s moreso that kind of misdirection about E2EE that Telegram uses. Unlike something like Matrix/Element which goes out of it’s way to explain E2EE, make sure it’s default on in every conversation, including group conversations, Telegram isn’t clear that it’s E2EE is opt-in and isn’t available in groups. Also, their encryption is home-rolled and to my knowledge has never been audited. Plus the generally skeevy credentials of the owner/creator make it untrustworthy.
Also, it seems to be a haven for scammers, which also puts it in the “don’t suggest this to people” basket.

I heard even Viber is better than Telegram
