I think people ignore one very important aspect of Telegram which is privacy. All other chat apps just want all my private data. There is no privacy at all, I feel almost naked. After coming to know about Telegram I couldn't be happier. I don't care if the encryption in strong or not, at last I have a chat app which many people use and isn't a total privacy nightmare.

- Karunamon 12y agoThat's just it - there is no privacy. You've got a client which stores plaintext messages server side, just waiting to be broken into by (hackers/government agents/kiddies). The messages are being sent unencrypted unless you enable the "secure" (it really isn't) mode anyways, so we can also add "people who can sniff your traffic" to the list of adversaries. That's pretty much the polar opposite of "private".
