  • I know why you got downvoted, but you are right, it’s not about tourists, it’s about the USA immigrants (the so called expats), since the goverment made changes to privately benefit from all the airbnb shit, we have people earning in dollars, that pay 0 taxes to México and of course the market tries to squeeze out their dollars, rising prices and changing the environment to appeal to those migrants, leaving out and even kicking out the nationals.

    People are right to be angry about it, but they are aiming to the wrong part, this was allowed (and boosted) by the past and present administration (even when they were warned about it) to fill their own pockets even if it meant stepping on their own people.

    Which one of those is closer to what Telegram brings to the table?
    Mostly pretty stuff like gifs/mp4/webm with alpha, stickers, animated stickers and handling things like webp/webm, self-destructing multimedia, chats that dissapear after X time, sending huge files, the option to send something as a file if it can’t be played internally, a desktop version that I can use simultaneusly… maybe groups and channels too, adding people by alias instead of phone number (maybe qr, but not a huge link like the one SimpleX uses).

    You know, things that could help me to bring my “friends” and family on board or at least to give it a try.

    Because Matrix isn’t exactly private since it’s meant to be a Discord clone and I share piracy among my friends and family, or for the sexy times with my friends, I need something that at least has self-destructing messages and chats where messages dissapear after some time.

    I could trust it if I could self-host, but I lack the hardware (disk space, mostly) and the availability (I can’t leave my pc on all the time [also I live in México, the internet is terrible and I tend to hog it if I’m downloading something]), so I’d have to trust some random yahoo with my stuff but it wouldn’t have what I’m looking for anyway.
