The less headache for the devs, the better. I fully support this decision

What could be other reasons not to do an audit other than it being shady? Maybe they just don’t want to disclose their algorithm?

So far, I trust it more than WhatsApp.

But Signal is definitely the better choice. It’s just sad the people didn’t go with Signal instead of WhatsApp.

Doesn’t mean it has been hacked or their own employees able to unencrypted data. On the contrary, governments like Iran or Russia tried to ban telegram, since they wouldn’t unencrypt their data. You never hear any complaints from governments about WhatsApp for example, what has a much larger user base and is allegedly end to end encrypted. Yes, sending sensitive information should only be done via private chat, their end to end encrypted message tech. Storing the data in the server has its advantages like accessing all the data from multiple devices.

Up until some time ago, telegram has been funded by Pavel Durov, nowadays it’s funded by a premium tier that unlocks extra features.

It is the messenger with the most features that I know of, blowing everything else out of the water if you don’t care about end to end stuff. And I trust it more that’s WhatsApp or anything from Meta

How is it sketchy?

A theme where the tab bar and header are iOS blurred transparent. Or better, apply it to all themes.

Or alternatively make the text less white 😉

Please make the image viewer behave like the native iOS behavior. Swipe down to close etc.

What would be better is to have the old macOS settings layout apply to landscape and big screens (also for iPad) and the list like settings menu for portrait form factors. Responsive design to be brief.
