      Why tho? What makes Telegram even remotely attractive? It has less security for groups than other messengers that have even more features, and the PMs are also unencrypted by default. Telegram itself is just a stupid concept. In my mind, only the right/conservative furries are on Telegram, as that and criminals are Telegrams only clients.

        This is actually an insane take

        Furries at large don’t care about the e2ee or security features

        They care that:

        1. their friends are the platform

        2. custom stickers of their fursonas are easy to make and import

        That’s basically it. Telegram has become entirely ubiquitous in the fandom. No one group/ideology claims it as their own.

        Sincerely,

        a progressive leftist furry who uses TG

          People underestimate how powerful stickers are to the average person

          I still miss the days of MSNPlus where I could add text shortcuts to display reaction images/gifs
