Sadly I'm in the same boat. I've been trying to switch to Matrix, but telegram is so much better in terms of features. I really miss the shared media and links functionality.

Do we really need excuses for pirating media?
I pirate movies because I think digital access to them is overpriced, goes to the copyright holder instead of the creators, it's convenient and most importantly because I can.
I can't pirate going to the cinema, nor can I afford to build my own, therefore I gladly pay to have a seat and enjoy a movie there.
Edit: I thought this may be relevant to the movies example I gave. I don't think movie studios, giving nothing back to society after massive profits are the ones we should debate the morals of stealing with.
Got into the franchise with NV and it is still one of my favorites. Played 1, 2 and 3 while waiting for 4. It turned out to be one massive disappointment. I don't think I even played half of it.
On the other hand, at the time I found my fix in Wasteland 2.
Borderlands 2 is an absolute masterpiece. The humor was adorably cheesy, the characters were much more interesting that OG and Pre-Sequel imo (totally in love with zer0).
I should probably install it and find some friends to play with.
You can upvote yourself on most platforms. You can like yourself on Facebook, you can give yourself a heart on Instagram. It's just not considered very tasteful as it is off by default.
My guess would be that it's kind of pointless to implement checks if the liker is also the poster just to prevent them from liking themself.
Years ago I moved to Linux and one of the reasons was to not spend as much time gaming. Nowadays if I wanted to do the same I would have to move to BSD.
Years ago I selfhosted Nextcloud and found this interaction just as clunky as using google drive. Now I'm just using SFTP which has much less overhead and it integrates beautifully with just about any file manager on Linux. Then again, using it on windows is a pain as far as I know.
Pray tell, good sir or madam, might I inquire if you, in all your noble magnificence, can lay claim to a distinguished position within the hallowed ranks of the illustrious landed gentry of Reddit?
You're absolutely right.
Yeah they are fantastic with new apps and phones.
I think that's mostly because most commercial apps have fantastic ui and ux.
It's so encouraging to hear so many pro Firefox opinions lately. Then I remember I'm logged into the pirate instance of a federated platform and anti-corporate sentiment is probably as high as it gets.
Sadly most younger people haven't even heard of Firefox.
Lemmings sounds absolutely adorable and since the app is defunct it is kind of free for the taking.
Each chat on telegram holds a history of shared media, which is separated into tabs for media (pictures and videos), files (any other files, including uncompressed images), links (every shared link, probably the most useful one), music and so on.
It's really handy if you remember you've sent someone a link to an article and don't want to scroll through 5 months of messages.
