Yeah, interesting, I don’t have that email. I guess I’ll find out if my subscription rate increases in December!

Hmm, what was the subject of that email? I don’t see one like that, but I want to be sure.

I’m still grandfathered in from the Google Play Music days, paying $7.99/mo for YT Music + YT Premium. I will never interrupt that subscription and lose that price, haha.

Telegram does have E2EE, just not in regular chats. Its secret chats are E2EE, as are its voice and video calls.

I also think it has the best UI of any of the messengers, personally. It’s customizable and very polished overall, at least on Android. Very smooth/optimized while having loads of features and lots of little animations to make things flow nicely without getting in the way.

I do like Signal and Matrix clients as well, though I just wish Matrix had more of a user base.
