It’s time for Nostr. It doesn’t exist other way
Nostr relays use DNS and can be blocked easily. China blocked them all qiickly a year ago. The west will do too aa soon as they see it as a threat. We need something even more decentralized and robust

Not to be mean but comments like these make me think you don't understand how serious this is
People getting arrested for small privacy improvements. And Telegram isn't even very private. E.g. everyone working for Signal kinda can't safely travel to Europe anymore. Stop for a second and think about how serious this is.
Derailing to a different software that isn't privacy focused but could maybe in the future become is so offtopic. Just because it's your favorite topic? Are you awake?

Yeah, Simplex is much more private. Different use case than Nostr though. Also just got a grant from Jack Dorsey too. https://simplex.chat/blog/20240814-simplex-chat-vision-funding-v6-private-routing-new-user-experience.html

"Someone" should reproduce Telegram on Nostr. With groups, encryption and everything. That would be part of saving the world from these tyrants and the people that vote them into power.

Normies won't touch anything that is not in App Store or Google Play. But yes, the world needs a decentralized confidential FOSS messenger with anonymous developers.
