@rubdos@mastodon.social Yea not my go-to either, but mandatory evil like Whatsapp in my case.... Because of Whisperfish I have pushed more people around me (successfully!!) to move to Signal. Thank you for all the great development you are doing for WF <3 maybe you could benefit from YG code?
As I know your profession, why is Telegram no-go in your professional opinion in short?

@Antti98@mastodon.social I've never really looked at the YG source; I probably should. But it'd be mainly for GUI stuff, and that's usually not my cup of tea. Telegram lives on this dangerous edge of rolling their own crypto and *not usually exactly catastrophically* failing at it. It's often the laughingstock of the cryptographic community, because they're a perfect example of violating all the best practices. If you have some time, @matthew_d_green@ioc.exchange is a great listen: https://securitycryptographywhatever.com/2024/09/06/telegram/
