The weird thing about Telegram is that for all of Pavel's talk of privacy, it's not end-to-end encrypted like WhatsApp and Signal. If The Blob is giving him grief for not going along with warrants, he could just encrypt, only offer traffic data like FB/Apple, and that's that.

Also, one of the great ironies of 'crypto' is that it settled on the least cryptographically secure and least decentralized messaging app as its main social/messaging platform. And XMTP and Signal are just sitting right there.

Product experience on XMTP and Signal aren’t comparable to Telegram unfortunately Hopefully they improve to get to feature parity soon

this is what's bugging me though. people in crypto are used to subpar ux in exchange for revolutionary tech. it almost looks like people are not in it for the principle, but for something else *shocked face* corollary: (of course it depends on the type of projects, but as a rule of thumb) i have a hard time trusting crypto projects that run their comms on telegram

This, if Signal wants to get more mindshare they should copy best Telegram features.
