Is it true that Telegram doesn't encrypt group chats at all? Maybe that would get their attention?
My biggest criticism of Telegram (but not the only one) is that they use homebrew crypto. Of course, I don't know if your family would understand why that's bad.
It's true. I'm also really annoyed with rising telegram premium stuff. It used to be just a nifty addon, now it's everywhere.
what exactly do you mean by "telegram premium stuff"?
Basically more perks which honestly is just more useless bloatware imo.
Gift someone premium, do this and do that with premium, now there are some ads too etc
