Alt+SysRq+F, needs to be enabled first

Do note that this opens up a security hole. Since this can kill any app at random and is not interceptable, if you leave your PC in a public place, someone could come up and press this combo a few times. Chances are, it’ll kill whatever the locking app you’re using.

Reminds me when back in the day I was working on a system where one of major component’s acronym was BOOTY. It was hard picking right terms and names for the new parts, but I managed to fit a variable named BOOTY_SLAP in there such that none of the reviewers even questioned it.

Telegram’s secret chats are e2e encrypted as well. They’re not the default option because it’s their way of balancing between being a messenger for privacy nuts and a social network with huge channels full of media at the same time.

Comparing the end-to-end chats, I straight up don’t trust WhatsApp, it could send my messages straight to Zuck as far as I’m concerned. Given how many reverse engineering projects got closed after a cease and desist letter from them, I suspect a great deal of security by obscurity. While Telegram isn’t much better with it’s ridiculously convoluted code, it’s inviting people to check and they have verifiable builds, that means that they are at least confident in what they are doing.

As for Signal and Matrix, I don’t know a single person who uses either, so for me Telegram is the best middle ground for my normie purposes

Telegram has open source clients and protocol specifications. Whatsapp is a piece of proprietary bullshit that you can’t even use without a phone and zuck will sue you for even trying to decomple it
