100% agree. Plus the random cryptocurrency thing.
Plus the bugginess of the new features. Create a group with topics? You'll have a great time...
And a lot of quality of life improvements are still missing. Use more than one client? You don't expect proper sync, do you? True E2EE (secret chats)? Well, no more than one client to begin with. Plus you lose a lot of features. Auto-delte messages? Well, you can, but others can just turn it off. Plus you can't enable or disable it for all chats at once.
What really weirds me out tho is how aggressively they try to make you sync your contacts...
I've never experienced any bugs with the new topics feature.
Lucky you, for me they basically ruined group chats completely. I get notifications for the wrong topic. Reply to a notification, you might end up posting in a couple ones. The client will sometimes jump to the very beginning of the chat history. Sometimes I don't get notifications for a topic, sometimes old messages appear as new ones.
It has become next to unusable for me.
