Yes this is a Telegram client and yes it will break the Lemmy’s downvote world record but I still find this one very nice and “actively” maintained. There are not many good Telegram FOSS forks without Google integrations and similar stuff out there.

Whoa, they not only won’t implement it, but will work on not letting anyone else do it. They’re more shady than I thought.

They’re not shady. They just don’t want to lose the market share and I think if they made Telegram really secure, there’d be even more illegal stuff on it and the government wouldn’t like it.

“They’re not shady.” Begins to describe the shady shit they do

How is it “shady” to not want to lose market share and keep illegal stuff off of it?

You could argue it’s “shitty” (perhaps, but it is their servers after all) but I don’t find it shady.
