I personally use Telegram for almost everything, since, like many who already use it, I consider that Telegram meets all the minimum necessary and more, to basically use it as messaging application only. However, we already know that the point of honor here to achieve this objective is that our family, friends, fellow students or work, clients or potential clients, migraine Also to Telegram.

  2. It offers greater guarantees and technological functionalities of security, privacy and anonymity.
  3. The existence of Groups, Supergroups and Channels that makes it easier for us to work in community and keep ourselves easily informed.
  4. The availability of the Telegraph tool, to create articles (long / long messages) and facilitate their sending and viewing (quick view) through a chat or channel.
  5. The huge offer of bots full of functions and capabilities to carry out tasks, both informative, moderation of groups and users, or support (text translation, speech-to-text conversion, information management, among others).
  6. The great capacity of its survey system, which can be used for everything, from deciding what Distro, Desktop Environment, Window Manager, or other Linuxero item, to giving an opinion or organizing ourselves, using the range of possibilities of its current three types of surveys.
  7. The existing wide variety of Groups, Supergroups and Channels well organized by Thematic Linuxeras, many of which come from famous or recognized websites, such as Blogs, as well as our official channel of Telegram from DesdeLinux.

Other reasons

Sure, we will surely have more reasons, such as the use or not of the stickers (static and animated), your photo editor, video player, embedded web browser, among others, but I think these 7 Reasons mentioned above are the most important to prefer to be Linuxeros on Telegram, before in WhatsApp.
