Telegram has every feature earlier than whatsapp
Except E2EE by default
yeah there's a tradeoff. it's either server-encrypted with your "cloud password" or e2e encrypted in which case you lose chat sync.
like you're supposed to use non-e2e chats for regular conversations, and encrypted ones for anything even remotely sensitive
audio/video calls are always encrypted.
Or just do it like Matrix or Signal or even WhatsApp which have both E2EE and chat sync
yeah they can do sync but it's rather janky and requires both devices to be on.
there are some advantages to telegram's cloud chat system, even though it's much less secure.
They don't though. Only WhatsApp does. The other ones don't require both devices to be on.
Also it's not janky at all (with the exception of WhatsApp)
indeed, that's true. Whatsapp is years behind Telegram in features.
