Why are you so worried about it all of a sudden? You aren't even going to France… Or are you? 😏
Messaging startups? Encrypted messaging?
Some of the commenters clearly have no idea (or do have and still post the same points, but let's not go there) what Telegram is and that besides multi-user chats, which aren't even encrypted its most commonly used feature is public channels, content in most of which is accessible even without having an account.

OMG, how do people come up with such a thing? 😲
There's probably something off with me, that's what seems UNEXPECTED to me 🤣

What does she want?! 😲

"Those, federating with the usual suspects, will be shot on sight 😡" — banging out of the public announcement system's loudspeakers.

Wait, humans don't? Oh, come on! Facebook has nearly three billions active users 😏

Make it 1998, I want to take another chance to make it to one of the Mechanical Animals tour shows 😂

Boring! The Senate should demand for him to give them one of his TESTIcules instead 🤭
@unspeaker
I was enjoying them as they were coming out and could give each more than a handful of listens — the old-school way to enjoy music: when there were no streaming services and you could only afford a new CD only every once in a while, but you could give it your full attention.
@unspeaker
The one with steel-tipped dove is good too, there is even a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZD3ciOeNW0
The song has funky cinematic and videogame references. This guy should be on Fedi, would fit right in 😂
But take your time of course, I think I got so addicted precisely because I had the opportunity to not spread my attention too thin.
@unspeaker
There's a video for Vox Machina, but it's nothing special, the song kinda speaks for itself.
Oh, I LOVE that record! It might sound, you know… non-anthemic, repetitive even, but then it starts giving you this psychedelic effect and it all… just flows, then you start noticing the highlights, amazing!
I recommend the follow up to it that I have already mentioned and this one: https://ajsuede.bandcamp.com/album/opta-mystic

Or you can even bring up the local Node.js infrastructure and use it in Firefox.
You can do the same with Schildi and probably Fluffy too.
@Hyolobrika
This is a very valid concern! But has more to do with centralised systems and has little to do with Element, which you can self host — you can wrap it in Electron, I think they even provide you with it themselves and call it a desktop app. You can never update it (unless it stops working with your Matrix server of course 😆).

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
