My sophisticated brothers in Bitcoin, keep in mind that the sole reason why Telegram is still allowed to operate in the West is that because it is as open to CIA as it is open to FSB.
Or do you think that Go Daddy SSL certificate gives enough protection to your communications?
Whatever the political climate, secret services will always cooperate when they need to spy on us.

once more for those in the back. if you care about your privacy and security, stop using telegram.
#telegram does not use end-to-end encryption by default, collects and stores user data, including your IP address, username, phone number, contacts, and device details. it is not a safe or secure app.

Are DMs encrypted? Or not at all?
Is Discord any better?
I’m thinking of average-person-friendly support communities for tech products etc…
Use Matrix
Discord is completely compromised
💯
discord couldn't care less about user privacy
Figured. I haven’t tried matrix before. Is it “normie friendly”?
Part of it I realize is for a privacy focused app to build up the critical mass to even gain normal users…
many organizations use it at a support room. i suggest watching a video to familiarize yourself. it is similar to nostr in that it is a protocol and there are different clients.
in the beginning it is easy to just start off with the main client 'element' and use their server. it is more centralized when you use their server, but it's a good place to start.
you can set up your own server later. as always, back up your keys so you don't lose your chat history.
"The simplest way to sign up and try Matrix out is to use Element, a web-based client. Go to app.element.io to get started - this will allow you to sign up for a new account on Matrix.org, and get chatting right away. There are also native Element apps for Android and iOS."
