A website who is describing Telegram as "longtime secure messenger"and places it above Element/Matrix in its ranking doesn't seem trustworthy at all even if the rest of the article would be 100% correct.
This is a major fuckup.
Completely agree. There is no proof at all that Telegram is secure. It’s also a closed platform. Currently it makes no money. But very soon I’m sure it will start serving Ads or premium features - all that server power and bandwidth isn’t free.
Yeah I agree, but most of the article is generally good.
