Post by tector »

I have been dabbling in it. Seems like a useful social platform with a LOT less censorship than FB, Twitter, IG, etc.

I have to say, however, that the Narco Footage and Narco Footage Chat channels are a BIT much. Jesus...the idea that we are just leaving the backdoor open to these animals is terrifying. Thanks Uncle Joe!!!

I just follow various channels. Lot less censorship, as I mentioned.

Tector also admittedly uses Twitter mostly for porn, so you can be assured he knows "less censorship" when he sees it. :lol:

TBH, I thought that only Scammers, Narcos, and LEO used Telegram due to the encryption. Maybe I should check it out.

I only use Telegram on a computer, I found the phone app too much of a resourse hog.

I actually don't look at porn on it (honest!). But I have a well-curated list of porn on Twitter.

I use it to dial into Stefan Molyneux’s Free Domain philosophy show when he goes live.
Had no idea there was porn on it :)

I have listened to it as a podcast, but not live. On podcasts I can run at 1.2/1.3 speed lol.
