Have been using Telegram for work for a few months now instead of (or in addition to) IRC - it's been very good, the mobile and desktop clients are great. Tested Tox last year but it was super buggy. TextSecure looked good but doesn't seem to have as many users. I think Telegram will keep growing. I just watched Durov's talk with Jimmy Wales from a couple of years back and he comes across like he genuinely cares about ideas that benefit all internet users more so than money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEHd4HbOLYM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEHd4HbOLYM Still, doesn't seem like a sustainable path to have the messaging infrastructure be a responsibility of one company, both for security and financial reasons. Surely some kind of tox style p2p infrastructure would be better?
