Can't

Never tried it. What's the appeal?

Signal

Wire.

It's like every week with this thread...

smoke signals

Like whatsapp without the botnet. So stickers, file sharing, music sharing, and some more stuff along with a focus on privacy

why does it need my phone number?

iMessage.

To prevent spam, and data collection probably.

literally anything

Checkmate dudes.

Hangouts

Share some groups.

USPS

>no end2end by default
wew

Any xmpp client. Telegram is horrible privacy wise: It needs a phone number, they can do anything they want with your phone number, your messages are stored on their servers as long as they want by default and the crypto, if you decide to turn it on, is completely homebrew and probably already data mined by the kgb. There isn't even an option to encrypt groups. Now take your shitty messenger and leave this board, shill

>lol let me get my normie friends to install something called EX EM PEE PEE HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
You people are a fucking riot. Telegram is a good balance.

> tfw they rolled their own crypto

Wire or tox.

Just tell them to get conversations or pix-art messenger, you don't tell them about the protocol, dummy. You are just in denial mode
>lmao secure messengers are haaaard
>i want daddy gubmint looking over my shoulder
>i can't because of my friends xddddd
Off yourself

That's a damn nice logo, I'll say that much

> without botnet
> account is tied to phone number

riot? yeah riot is a good chat application

messenger.com

Smoke signals.

beta.messenger.com

:^)

trick question, they're all shitty

>needs phone number

I don't care about botnets, but this is fucking bullshit. I seriously don't even understand why does it need a phone number, why?

>tox

this

guess twice

>without the botnet
Telegram isn't even encrypted, you are sending all of your data back to their servers

irc

Russian botnet with no PGP at desktop.

I hope this is bait.
Everything g is encrypted using MTProto (their own cryptography) by default.
You have the option to ratchet the encryption up a notch, using a feature called Secret Chat, which opens a end-to-end encrypted chat from one phone to another.

WhatsApp

You do realize that all their shit is unencrypted by default, right? They have transport security, but all of your data is stormed in plain text ready to get read by your friendly neighborhood kgb ruski. The """secret chat""" mtproto encryption is non-standard and probably easily breakable as well

>Name a better messenger.
Telegram is the best messenger but that doesn't mean it's secure

If you care about security or encryption then you should look elsewhere

For me, while I do care about security, convenience is more of a priority and telegram is very convenient to use

>ISIS slave market

I love seeing fags mentioning IRC yet all they do is sit idle in the rooms and just circlejerk their lives away. Autism, such many cases...

That's all nice and well but everyone and their dog is using WhatsApp. IMO it's not bad enough that I'd care to try and convert people.

Also, unencrypted by default and rolling their own encryption, lol

VKontakte :3

wire

How is this better than kik?

It's encrypted server side by default (instead of e2e like on WhatsApp and Signal). It's not great, but it is absolutely not the same as being unencrypted. Compare it to walk around with light clothing instead of butt naked.

tfw no qt ruskie to talk with.

There is only one masterrace messenger.

It is SIGNAL.

It's like having a coat cover you and the naked pedophile you're hugging beneath it

XMPP
now kill yourself

nice try FBI, I use incognito mode

Good messenger, but for security use Signal.

I think Whatsapp groups have the opposite problem, there's way too many messages and it just clutters up your notifications.

Jabber convos were easy last time I checked.

Signal no longer requires Google Play Services. It has not for quite some time.

Encrypted by 3rd party, their server acts as MITM.

because there is too much people, groups are for general stuff (unlike IRC where it is specialized channels), and there is no nettiquete
tl;dr: too many retards use mobile messaging apps (who would have thought?)

easy
