I highly recommend Telegram. The issue with having to install yet another app is still present, but me and my close friends have made the switch and haven't looked back since.



Telegram, while good software, is the worst of the messengers, because they're based in Russia.

The Russian government recently asked for the encryption keys and they have like one more week to comply.

CORRECTION: They're currently in Dubai and are relocating as needed.


Telegram founder often claims he has no links with Russia, apart from being born there. https://www.calvertjournal.com/news/show/9478/telegram-found...

As far as I know the team is in Dubai right now.
