At various times, most social media platforms have received criticism for alleged failure to prevent distribution of copyright-infringing content. Few, however, have been threatened with widespread blocking more often than Telegram. In a row that seemed ready to boil over last year, Telegram was given an ultimatum by the Malaysian government; come to the negotiating table or face the consequences. A Malaysian minister now says that Telegram is ready to fight piracy.

So, we started, or better said, finishing with the enshittification of telegram? Nice to know. Now there will be no difference with WhatsApp...

Telegram is and always has been shitty. WhatsApp is shitty too. Use Signal instead.

Signal also has its flaws. Use Matrix.

Matrix has flaws as well, use XMPP.

For this type of use (larger scale group chat) I would agree. What are the flaws with signal though?
