Some people say it's really privacy-giving and that you should use it as a privacy alternative. Others say it's alao on the big tech side. What's going on with telegram, really?

Yeah, it seems that everything has an imperfection, unfortunately. Just gotta choose one. I'd jump on Signal if they remove the phone number, but like you I think it's the shiniest of the bunch. I just want media with captions, uncompressed uploads, the ability to search messages, full e2ee for calls and messages, the ability to conference call, secure message migration/sync to a new client, emoji/rich text and markdown format support, by a company that promises not to access its users' messages, location or other identifying information.
