Hi all, we have great open source alternative for whatsapp. which is free from many restrictions like, we can login at only one device, subscription frees, size of file attachment, no desktop/web client etc. I am using telegram since last 6 months.
why switch to telegram ( https://telegram.org/ )? 1. its available for almost all major platforms officially or unofficially. 2. unofficial webapp version is available, so no need of setup or installation just start messaging using your favorite browser ( http://zhukov.github.io/webogram/ ) 3. Desktop clients are available for Linux/window/mac 4. Privacy: Telegram messages are heavily encrypted and can self-destruct. 5. Cloud-Based: Telegram lets you access your messages from multiple devices. (you can access telegram on your mobile, on PC or other device simultaneously ) 6. Distributed: Telegram servers are spread worldwide for security and speed. 7. Open: Telegram has an open API and protocol free for everyone. so you can create your own client or you can integrate telegram anywhere in your mobile app, web site or desktop app etc. 8. Free: Unlike whatsapp Telegram is free forever. No ads. No subscription fees. 9. Security: implemented sophisticated security features ( https://telegram.org/faq) 10. Powerful: Telegram has no limits on the size of your media and chats. 11. look and feel is same as whatsap. 12. its development would be faster than whatsapp -- -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Linux User Group @ IIT Delhi" group.
