Hello fellow pirates! I’m tired of having all the telegram premium ads and antifeatures in the client and I’m looking for a client that removed them even if it’s against the TOS. Any tips? I’d rather use an actual open source fork than a cracked version of the original
I’m looking for both Android and Desktop (Linux)
What I want is to remove the hateful ads in the channels and the “buy premium to unlock these emojis”, and also to be able to arrange the folders in whatever order I like, without being forced to keep the “All messages” as first
thanks in advance!
Oh no, the bad man told me to pay for the privacy service I use instead of freeloading and stealing from them.
It’s one thing to steal shit because it’s unavailable. I think it’s another to steal from a company offering reasonable privacy services competing against Whatsapp. And then you’ll all removed when it’s only Facebook left. Signal is certainly circling the drain.
You must be joking
Look at the profile. Known troll.
Nope.
How about using a messenger that isn’t beholden to the good graces of “a company?” XMPP has been around for ages. Setup a server and use it.
Good luck getting anyone to use it.
Well, if you are to be believed, eventually they won’t have any choice once the other shitty dominoes fall.
Yup. And the current status quo will continue. Folks will use WhatsApp, iOS, RCS.
Support companies like signal and telegram.
Nope, fuck companies like telegram. Just another ghoul trying to profit off the backs of open source developers. Signal is owned by a non-profit, so not sure what kind of “support” you are speaking of, but the desktop app is electron trash, so it’s right out for me.
Also, one of those things is not like the others. RCS is a 3GPP standard, the infrastructure to run already being paid for by my wireless bill. I would prefer people use it to talk to me.
Doesn’t it depend exclusively on Google?
Carriers can setup their own infrastructure if they wish, it’s just that many are content to let Google deal with it. This isn’t RCS’s (or Google’s, for that matter) fault.
Whinge somewhere else. This is a piracy sub, not a bootlicker sub
Love that you’re complaining about this stuff in the piracy community lol.
Imagine thinking you should be able to use the platform that makes “open source” their whole marketing pitch while locking you into their platform that they have paywalls on, then try to enforce restrictions on how modifications to their “open source” project are allowed to work, for free.
