I guess it depends on the kind of publicity/promotion an app gets when it is associated with a particular activity. TgM has a pretty good chance of being the defacto goto messenger to be associated with Fidonet! :)

Interesting. Some of them are described as XMPP based. I've
heard of that but never understood its applications.

I did not realize there were so many open-source messenger
projects. But do they offer the application kit/API that
Telegram offers? I have to ask Stas why he settled with
Telegram and not the others.

Hi, August!

Telegram offers? I have to ask Stas why he settled with
Telegram and not the others.

It's just an accident. I already told this story. One of the sysops asked me to help him make a simple script on a pearl to broadcast his netmail to him in Telegram. This is how it all started.

Have nice nights.
Stas Mishchenkov.

Is it like VK (VKontakte) is the number one social network and messenger in Russia, so Telegram takes the second place? If this is true, I can see how choice was made here haha

Right now, I don't understand the analogy at all? How do social networks relate to the topic of the question?
I did it because I can and where my friend asked me. What's wrong?

I don't know about VK, but Stas has explained why this is what it is before.

Might I suggest continued discussion of this topic in FUTURE4FIDO, where it is more appropriate?

FUTURE4FIDO would be fine I am sure. This is a general chat area so any topic that folks have in mind is also OK.

I don't know about VK,

The same social network as Facebook.

but Stas has explained why this is what it is before.

If you use --Nil Alexandrov-- as first line of you message, in Fido it will be addressed to Nil, not me.

Might I suggest continued discussion of this topic in FUTURE4FIDO,
where it is more appropriate?

Ok.

Have nice nights.

Nothing is wrong. NA is popping into this matter a bit out of
step (does not know the original reason why you started with
TgM) and is astonished by your choice because the usage
ratings charts allude to successful popularity, so why pick a
an underdog.

Thank you for reminding ME that you were tasked with the
challenge/need to build a script to pass netmail to Telegram.

It has turned out to be the beginnings of greater things! <g>

Nothing wrong, you don't need to defend.

It's just happened that social networks have an instant messenger included and that can be used as a transport to delivery FTN messages. You can completely skip on the social network aspect of that particular network.

Yeah... and it's about exposure. The usual coffee_klatsch
lurker will now hear about the Telegram option and will maybe
want to try it! <G>

And.. for the benefit of those lurkers, here is the current
list of echos that are available on your portable device
(smartphone/tablet, windows/linux/android/mac/macOS/iPhone/
iPad):

FUTURE4FIDO
COFFEE_KLATSCH (this one)
DOS
TAGLINES
FIDO_UTIL
ESSNASA
DOOM
DOORGAMES
TUXPOWER
MOVIES
FIDO-REQ

Once you are set up and registered with Telegram, just send an
access request to @aabolins, or @cepiersonjr, or @BroRabbit,
and any of us can add you. Then, once you are added, YOU can
add new people who would be interested to join the echo
yourself!
