    @telegram @WhatsApp Compare that to Signal that is both FOSS with reproducible builds and E2EE, always. Even groups. And desktop chats. Maybe get on with times and fix your ****? Imagine how great your UX combined with proper E2EE would be. Surely Durov has money to hire a few actual cryptographers?
