Ventoy source code contains some unknown BLOBs, still no word on the issue from the dev after months

After I saw that issue, I attempted to build Ventoy from source. After making numerous modifications and getting only the first couple components built, I got tired of it and quit. I've made some modifications to glim and use that instead, although it's still not as easy as Ventoy. But I don't trust Ventoy if I can't build it myself.

Further, when @[email protected] made some criticisms of Ventoy in one of her YouTube videos, she was subjected to a harassment campaign, and others told her the same happened to them. That pushed me from not trusting Ventoy to actively distrusting it.

Telegram is exposing their users privacy.

Telegram users have never had privacy. Group chats are completely in the open and private messages are only encrypted if both users turn it on for each conversation—and it's off by default. I've never understood why anyone thinks Telegram is any better than posting anywhere else on the internet.

It's not OP's fault that Raccoon's developer chose to be extra and delete their app from the internet for scoring low on a Markdown implementation rating, especially since the level of implementation was a design decision. Further, a pull request was coming soon that would have dramatically improved it. It's too bad that the developer being dramatic killed off a very nice app.
