While I agree with your and a more open/private telegram would be great the thing is that the current alternatives, Signal, Matrix, whatever are simply subpar alternatives when it comes to the clients. We can say a lot about telegram's privacy but the true is that all their native mobile and desktop clients outperform everything else out there. (I wonder why a native app would outperform react garbage :P).
The only think that might be private yet as performant as Telegram might be some kind of XMPP but the issue with that is that mobile clients suck.
I don't think matrix have piracy groups but yes in terms of privacy it's the best (ok maybe not the best and i should have put some reaserch into it my bad guys . i don't use it though)
No, Matrix isn't the best in terms of privacy. It is a metadata disaster and Telegram clients are still more performant.
ive been scared to say i dont like matrix. so many people seem in love with it.
Ask your mates with whom you connect on telegram to move to matrix
Lol from telegram my friends won't move from instagram to telegram only a few of them are available in telegram that too rarely. I am the only one not on insta in our friends group and everyone aldready thinks i am tinfoil hat guy if i tell them about frediverse and the problems with using instagram they will think i am going nuts . I just call them if i want to talk nowadays .
I've seen and heard of a few. Thing is when you join them you'll only get access to newer stuff there, the E2EE makes past messages unreadable if you haven't been there for a while. It's not like on Telegram where you get Room history access.
The only piracy rooms on matrix that I know of are jc141 support and jc141 gnu/linux hackers
