I gotta admit Telegram has proven itself to be more reliable and privacy-consistent than Signal, and it's run by an exiled Russian techie. I could be wrong tho, as I got little experience of it.
The a.nti.social Pleroma is quite okay, I think, and the fediverse in general has an colorful bunch of wingnuts, good or bad. Tho I find it can easily get stale and superficial after a while, imo, lacking some IRL outlets. Might or might not end up being another one of those failed internet experiments that fall down the memory hole, after a few years... Its diversity and decentralized nature is a big plus over other social media, including Telegram, tho.
I wonder how merging IRC with the Pleroma in some way is doable, or just add a kind of messenger to it... as it could greatly benefit that "scene".
