I tried SimpleX but the VPN kill switch on my phone prevents syncing with my computer.

I use telegram primarily as a note taking app with sync features.

Occasionally I send files to friends, so having easy set up for tech illiterate would be great.

    Signal is private. This is c/privacy.

    Telegram is not private at all, but has channels and big groups and even, yes, mini-apps.

    So Telegram is not an alternative to Signal either, it doesn’t even start solving problems that are solved genially in Signal.

        Try Nostr, I dunno. Or VKontakte if you want the Telegram functionality of sending transcripts of your communications to FSB.

            You should learn something about things you use before talking about conspiracy theories.
