I feel like someone tooling with a secure messaging app makes it less…reliable that its secure, despite yanking google play parts out of the code. Thoughts?

    Telegram FOSS removes a lot of the proprietary code from the official telegram client and also it prefers OSM instead of Gmaps. I’ve been using Telegram FOSS for some months and I haven’t faced any issues. As for security, I am not really sure.

    If you are using telegram for any sensitive conversations, I wouldn’t recommend using it. Use Signal, Matrix or some other good and open source messaging app.
