It won't take long for clients to pop up. But ultimately people shouldn't rely on telegram or any billionaire backed software for pretty much anything.
100% agreed, but it's so hard to get everyone to move to signal or simplex or something.
I use telegram mainly for info channels and tickers. To my knowledge that's not possible in Signal, because you can't restrict participants to be read-only (right?)
I saw people using signal for announcements only by restricting posting messages to group chat admins. Is that similar to what you're looking for?
Ah nice, I didn't know that was possible
