Telegram is really good for this, in my experience, and similar to Signal.
But you're right, Signal is designed for secure communication between parties. Allowing messages to be exported or archived should at worst leave only your own messages (and remove all others including media) and at best not exist at all.
Sure, let me just single handedly backup our conversation and send it to the HK police...
- FalconSensei 6y agoThat's the thing, there are different types of uses. And in my case, I only message family and close friends. I doubt my mom will send my 'good morning', 'good night' and 'love you' to the HK police. If you are communicating with people you don't know/trust, then yeah, you want expiring messages that are not exportable
- carlhjerpe 6y agoYou should be aware that if you can read messages on the screen with an open source app they can be exported. There's no way around this, if the app is closed source it might be initially harder to export but just as possible.
