Telegram is adopted widely by the “crypto community”. But Monero should not be apart of this, as it’s a centralized platform doing zero metadata protection and only encrypted on mobile. Here’s an excellent video you can send your friends who request you to message them on there: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/why-telegram-sucks/
Simplex is doing good things nowadays. Here is a monero group that I created in order to test it. Feel free to join in and test simplex:

Just joined it as well… will promote on social media if that’s OK? On my xmr people;)
Feel free the share the group join link far and wide. As far as I am concerned, the more Monero enthusiasts in there, the better.
Cool, git two in today… will push a little. So far, I like the chat app and the group ;)
I’m already in the group, it’s great! SimpleX is private in a very unique way
