No one said the opposite, while on WhatsApp they had several vulnerabilities that allowed attackers to get the user phone control.

An example: https://thehackernews.com/2021/04/new-whatsapp-bug-couldve-let-attackers.html

But there were many more vulnerabilities or "features" that WhatsApp allowed attackers or governments to get into user data. While I haven't read anything about against Telegram security.

But at least the desktop itself isn't using JavaScript that much like Gnome do. Show me the repo with the % to see what are you referring.

WhatsApp will be never private and secure, while Telegram will be never private. 😁

No one here said GNOME desktop is mostly JS.

Mostly C because you need to type more C code to do the same with JavaScript, so I suppose most of the logics are using JavaScript. Plasma desktop has 2% JavaScript (https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop), it's not comparable. 🙂

Yeah, that would make sense as opening TCP connections is not really viable for low latency, hahaha.

But is that related to my comment? I don't understand why he's talking about downloading games via P2P.

I always download my games before playing them. I don't know what you mean here.

I'm not an expert, but I suppose as this patch is on the kernel and not on the game, this will still improve any connection your kernel needs to do, like sending telemetry of your anti-cheat engine and other apps that make TCP requests while you are playing online games.

I can't with macOS, even they keybinding makes no sense... it's such a pain and I love Linux too much. About Windows... it at least has an easier way to manage the app windows and minimize and get it back properly, on macOS I need to install third party tools to be able to switch from windows from the same app, and it's really a mess and slower than a built-in grid and windows switch manager. Also, if you are an expert of Windows you can always remove much bloated stuff, there are some high skilled Windows users that know how to clean their Windows OS, the only problem is WSL2 isn't working properly for me, it is limited compared to a decent Linux system and on Linux you can always run Windows apps with wine, so I don't see why I would want to use Windows haha.

Now, gamers will want to play on Linux for the low latency on online games.
