   Curious: I would LOVE to get away from my iPhone. The problem? I require Telegram. Yeah, I know there's Android. The problem? Android makes me physically ill. (I'm a weirdo)

   So, please tell me what other options I've got for a Telegram-worthy phone.

   (And if you tell me to just drop Telegram, I'll tell you to quit your job, because that's what I'd have to do in order to drop Telegram.)

     @Big_Diggity @indie1337 i wonder if you could do some telegram-matrix bridge thing but im not sure how that would go over with work on the telegram side. On another note. Ive had the same cell phone number since 2003 lol.

     @Hawk1291 @Big_Diggity I'm too dumb for that LOL

     And I've moved 30 times in the last 23 years across 4 provinces and 2 states in 2 countries. I don't think I could've kept the same number if I tried! :-P

     That's funny, I literally just had to send an old buddy my latest phone number after changing it 2 years ago. That happened this morning.

     There is something refreshing about getting a new phone number anyway. 😀

     @Big_Diggity This is one case where I cannot. Also, I don't really want to. My old number is from a different province. I'd like a number in the province I live in.

     So I THINK I'm going to give Android another shot - but swapping the launcher.

     At least then I could have Vivaldi on my phone, too.

     New cell phone number, too, since the local carrier has better rate plans than my previous carrier.

     You can port your phone number from one carrier to another.

     @Ji Fu @Indiámo ☧ I don't have a bridge built yet, but sounds like a good excuse to tinker with it. 😀
