I have also seen Telegram groups dedicated to drug trade migrating to other platforms such as Signal.

And here I am over here just using telegram for it's easy to build bots and talking to my family. The bots are handy for many things.

Not a seasoned programmer myself but I did one (with Telethon and Python) to remind everyone in my family about incoming medical appointments for my parents, due dates for public services and calculating how much everyone must pay or due dates for going for their medications
