    Looks like Telegram is best suited to mobile use,
    which complements existing FTN well.

    I use the portable Windows DT version on a USB stick and access TgM from a couple of different laptops at two different locations. So, even without a phone handy, the portable version can be used from any available PC - as long as
    it has Win7 minimum.

    Would be interesting to hear from anyone inclined to use the linux/mac/macOS/iPad DT versions.

    That's one way to do it, though I dont tend to access random PCs as much as I used to, so that's not likely to be my favoured option for a while. The Android version is working well for me, as well as on the PC (installed).

    I could try the Linux version at some time. :)

    Good to hear that. The TgM UI is very well designed with
    appearance and function taken into consideration.
    Yes, it's not perfect, but certainly falls into the category of
    "good enough". :)

    It does seem that way. On the Telegram side. I have noticed for example, that first thing in the day it is a bit more complicated going through unread messages for me, but that could possibly just be me not being used to Telegram itself.
