Is Telegram really that bad and should i look more into it or is sticking to signal really the best option?

    Well, I’d say they can do that as long as it stays on my device like with Signal.

      You were calling someone cringe for asking why Telegram isn’t secure. Now here you are thinking your Signal messages aren’t sitting in an NSA server somewhere in front of all these people. You’re delusional, mate. You’re like a step above a script kiddy in regards to technical understanding. You’re so close to understanding the reality that you have no data privacy, but you’re still so far…

      How does it stay on your device? I’m notified if a contact of mine uses signal. That means if someone has my.number in their phone signal will let them know I use signal. I don’t really want someone to be able to confirm that I use a service.

        It just does. Your phone can check by itself if someone is on signal or not - no upload of contacts needed.
