                [deleted post]I don't think you can impose tax on something like that.

                  Telegram was blocked already before?

                        Since the Indian government is so proactive now, when will they do anything about the scam centers that are growing like mushrooms in India?

                          GAMIR3DH, 02 May 2023Mediafire and Element? Bruhanother that also supports storing photos, videos and conversations.

                            This is what I like India, I want Indonesia to bans also like tiktok.. I mean, some of the content on TikTok is also good, but domestic applications are better than foreign ones. Indonesia is the 2nd country with the biggest tiktok users in the world FYI.

                              Only messenger that I know of from the list is Threema. Good thing I didn't purchase it.

                                Mediafire and Element? Bruh

                                  Oof, Threema...those guys are supposed to be the paid alternative to Telegram, Signal, and Whatsapp.

                                  Signal's chance to pounce if they want to recover users after the SMS fiasco.

                                    I just checked. These apps are really shady, from various countries around the world, and one is slated for termination in the Play Store. Maybe it's a good thing, because none had any significant amount of ratings, and most don't get above 4.0 in terms of rating.
