Telegram is one of the most popular messaging tools, chosen by many online services to stay connected with their audiences. Major shadow libraries Z-Library and Anna's Archive used Telegram until this week, when both accounts were terminated for copyright infringement. While these websites offer infringing content, both were cautious to avoid copyright troubles on Telegram.

Why is matrix a cesspool? What makes it more of a cesspool than telegram?

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

CSAM bots advertising illegal telegram groups. Absolutely disgusting. These were prevalent in multiple public channels including the piracy one that I briefly checked out.

I understand matrix is completely unregulated, but I don't want to see even the words describing such filth

It's not completely unregulated at all. The mods totally have the power to ban bots, just find a place that's actually moderated at all

Did that not exist on telegram? How did telegram manage it?

Not to the piracy channels that I'm on now. They're moderated.

Moderated matrix channels don't seem to have these bots. Idk I found these bots too on some public channels, I left thinking those channels were fake.
