So this is very simple. When you message somebody on telegram it is not encrypted unless you start a secret chat with that person. You simply click their profile/name info and click "start secret chat" to begin an encrypted and safe chat. Otherwise when not in a secret chat your chats are not encrypted and also are saved on telegrams servers. Stay safe everybody.
 
Hmm I've never used telegram I don't understand why it's become so popular. I'm guesisng maybe it's cause its more user friendly on mobile devices than other methods and methods of encryption?

thats the gist of it

something like signal would be a lot safer but the problem with signal is that it wipes out all your chat threads when you sign out or lose your phone number, other apps like simplex and wire are picking up a bit lately with lesser known/newer vendors from what ive been seeing lately

Yes simplex and wire have been picking up.
I also think "session" is looking good so far!

here is the whitepaper for session if you want to give it a read (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2002.04609)

Anyone heard of freedom chat? I saw some dude post about it somewhere awhile back but never looked into it.

Haven't heard of wire, simple X seems alright, hate the layout though! Session glitches soooooooo bad. Element is super confusing still lol.

I also like to use temp.pm notes on Telegram if someone isn't using a secret chat.

element is pretty decent for breaking down groups into topics/channels once you figure it out. there's a cannabis vendor directory that moved over there after the tg crackdown and it's pretty well organized.
