let's not pretend that Telegram is any better than using WhatsApp.
True in the sense that Telegram is not a real privacy-respecting alternative. So, it's a good thing to point out.
My reasons for leaving Meta are more anti-Meta than anything else. For those who have succeeded at using something really private, my respects. I just not had any good alternative without being cut off society.
If I thought there was no difference between Telegram and WhatsApp, I'd have kept using WhatsApp. But yeah, it's not good option anyway. Just good-enough compromise for me to leave Meta.
