the year is 2069: your #Telegram chat shows a huge ad banner that covers most of the screen, that together with the constantly moving stickers with flashing explosions and effects in the "premium store showcase" section only leaves space for a single message bubble so you communicate with voice messages instead of text

Asynchronous podcasts are a unique format, shaped by the parameters (pros & cons) of asynchronous audio conversation. AMPS could facilitate long interviews and conversations—people can pose questions and take time to reflect. Interviews could unfold over weeks, but be listened to in one sitting. I hope others explore this medium with their own objectives and creativity.

Purpose:
Take audio from a conversation in a Telegram IM group chat and 1) download these files, 2) process them, and 3) concatenate them into a single file ready to be uploaded as a podcast.

Announcing AMPS (Asynchronous/Audio Messaging to Podcast System)

AMPS converts Telegram group conversation audio messages into a single, processed audio file to be used as a podcast.

AMPS is three Python3 scripts. AMPS works with Telegram group chats. However, future versions may support other instant messaging platforms.

“Russia has opened a criminal investigation into #Telegram founder Pavel Durov on charges of facilitating terrorist activity, according to articles published February 24 in the nation’s newspaper of record, Rossiyskaya Gazeta, and the tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda.“

"Plus any apps you sign into with a phone number will probably hijack that previous person’s account, too. I was able to easily do that with WhatsApp, Signal, & Telegram since those apps are heavily (and stupidly) dependent on phone numbers. "

Hang on, are you saying you were able to hijack people's Telegram and *Signal* accounts using recently issued SIMs with recycled phone numbers?!

😳 I am still shocked that #Russia 🇷🇺 still lets their soldiers use social media accounts—especially foreign ones.

Yeah, #Telegram is blocked at the national level, but the fact they were still using it is shocking.

Eah!, acabo de salir de #Telegram

Telegram bonds in Russia worth half a billion dollars have been frozen under western sanctions, revealing the messaging app’s financial exposure to the country even after founder Pavel #Durov has sought to sever ties with Moscow.

@ksv236 @hn50 Oh I’ve been following #Telegram for years, this is probably their mildest offense. They have literally turned users over to the police in multiple nations for what they’ve said on their service.

#Telegram is not your friend and does not support free speech. They will censor on behalf of governments across the globe.

DICA para quem usa #Telegram e #XMPP:

Grupo destinado à socialização de assuntos relacionados a área social, bem como as mais diversas áreas do conhecimento humano:

#Telegram has a nice and fast UI, granted.

But the 1 billion people using TG are at risk because of its big central database that any state security service craves for. Moreover, several anonymization proxy-bot offerings were hacked in 2024, identifying millions of users and content.

#deltachat builds anonymization directly into the app and has pervasive end-to-end encryption. #chatmail relay operators can sleep well, knowing they have nothing. Ergo, E2EE is good for any operators sleep! :)

Indien zwingt WhatsApp und Telegram zur permanenten SIM-Bindung

Indiens Telekombehörde DoT verpflichtet Messenger-Dienste zur dauerhaften SIM-Bindung. WhatsApp, Telegram und Signal müssen binnen 90 Tagen umstellen.

Ho fatto un tutorial su @delta, un sistema di messaggistica istantanea libero e privato basato sulle e-mail, ma con un'esperienza utente molto simile a WhatsApp, se non migliore.

What an announcement from #Telegram owner Pawel Durov! To provide just a few critical notes, he

- makes believe he is just a commoner, and not the billionaire owner of one of the largest message, media and metadata *cleartext* databases on earth

- skips over Global Warming

- refers to "fathers and forefathers" of the Internet ... apparently never heard of Radia Perlman, Margaret Hamilton or Ada Lovelace?

- conveniently excludes Russia and its authoritarian politics from his critique

etc.
