Is Telegram really that bad and should i look more into it or is sticking to signal really the best option?

I understand, but if you are new to this conversation app, right after installing it would be good to know which of your contacts your are able to talk to there. I don’t see asking one by one and adding them manually a good solution, maybe there is another one I don’t see
Well, I’d say they can do that as long as it stays on my device like with Signal.
Signal still have access to your contact list at first, they simply not store it anywhere. Which is good for me
You were calling someone cringe for asking why Telegram isn’t secure. Now here you are thinking your Signal messages aren’t sitting in an NSA server somewhere in front of all these people. You’re delusional, mate. You’re like a step above a script kiddy in regards to technical understanding. You’re so close to understanding the reality that you have no data privacy, but you’re still so far…
How does it stay on your device? I’m notified if a contact of mine uses signal. That means if someone has my.number in their phone signal will let them know I use signal. I don’t really want someone to be able to confirm that I use a service.
It just does. Your phone can check by itself if someone is on signal or not - no upload of contacts needed.
