Wanted to know if there are any other android apps with features like telegram such as sending ,recieving big files creating channels etc. Using a bot or channel in telegram to pirate movies and series are infinitely easier than torremting . But as telegram is not fully open source and requires a phone number to create an account i am looking to see if there are any better alternatives which aldready does have a piracy ring like telegram . If you know any share . I am asking this here because i think it is the right sub and i can’t find an alternative anywhere on the web . If it isn’t the sub for this i will delete the post if you request so in the comments.
While I agree with your and a more open/private telegram would be great the thing is that the current alternatives, Signal, Matrix, whatever are simply subpar alternatives when it comes to the clients. We can say a lot about telegram’s privacy but the true is that all their native mobile and desktop clients outperform everything else out there. (I wonder why a native app would outperform react garbage :P).
The only think that might be private yet as performant as Telegram might be some kind of XMPP but the issue with that is that mobile clients suck.
I don’t think matrix have piracy groups but yes in terms of privacy it’s the best (ok maybe not the best and i should have put some reaserch into it my bad guys . i don’t use it though)
No, Matrix isn’t the best in terms of privacy. It is a metadata disaster and Telegram clients are still more performant.
ive been scared to say i dont like matrix. so many people seem in love with it.
