It doesn't. I didn't bother to mention that Discord doesn't have it. Or Slack. My problem with Telegram is that one of their main selling points is that they're "private". Slack and Discord don't have e2e either, but they make no such claim.

So yeah, my problem with TG is more philosophical than technical. But there's still no way in hell I'm using it or going to in any way encourage others to do so.
