Telegram is just actually superior in terms of features I don’t get it.

    I’m not sure the file limitations are much of a factor when 100mb covers most files that would need to be sent through a messaging service. There are plenty of dedicated services for sharing larger files.

      I mentioned it because it was an annoying limitation for me. 100mb is not a lot for media and zip files nowadays. And I don’t know any good free services that will work more conveniently than simply sending with Telegram, suggestions welcome.

        Why would you text someone a zip? I always send any files like that over email, I recommend ProtonMail for security but what do I know

        https://toffeeshare.com/ is what I usually use for big files. But both sender and receiver need to be online for the whole transfer. It doesn’t store anything you send on their servers, but that’s a feature for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      That’s the point tho, it negates the need for dedicated services for sharing larger files

          1. It’s encrypted, just not E2E encrypted

          2. A lot of the time the files i’m sending are game clips or parts of Youtube videos. i want good quality above privacy
