Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure
>Given how the posted described the optional `--no-sandbox` flag as "no sandbox on Linux", it's clear that they don't understand anything they're sharing, and they just want to spread FUD.
Could you elaborate as you seem to be more "knowledgeable". This flag is clear at what it does and shouldn't be shipped into production. https://no-sandbox.io/
You can have a look where they specifically chose to force it https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/commit/1ca0d8210...

It does, see [0]. Fun fact: Signal desktop, which uses Electron under the hood, is running without sandbox on Linux [1][2].

super choppy video streams
There was a issue opened on GitHub a while back apparently but that was closed due to inactivity. What you might want to do is either open a new issue directly in GitHub (provide as much information as possible and include debug logs) or just send them a support ticket via the support form (and include debug logs).
- Signal Desktop for Windows takes 30+ min to send messages. Phone app still works.

A hackable AI assistant using a single SQLite table and a handful of cron jobs
*Update*: I tried writing a little Python code to read and write from a mailbox, reading worked great, but writing an email had the email disappear to some filter or spam or something somewhere. I've got to figure out where it went, but this is the warning that some people had about not trusting a messaging protocol (email in this case) when you can't control the servers. Messages can disappear.
I read that [Mailgun](https://www.mailgun.com/) might improve this. Haven't tried it yet.
Other alternatives for messages that I haven't tried. My requirement is to be able to send messages and send/receive on my mobile device. I do not want to write a mobile app.

Telegram OAuth Authorization for Your Site
You can make authorization via Telegram another way. It works. But today we want to do the classic OAuth Authorization. Before you begin, you need to create a Telegram bot and obtain your bot token. You can do this in @BotFather in Telegram. For more information on initiating a bot, read the Telegram Bot API documentation: https://core.telegram.org/bots

Is my idea possible to implement?
Absolutely possible. Here's the github page to the Telegram bot API. You would just need to check for incoming messages, check the body of the message for a word or phrase, and then send a message back with a photo or gif and an encouraging message.

A simple forwarder from WhatsApp to Telegram written in Go
Telegram has a bot API server that provides API to control the bots and get updates. Their own instance has some restrictions like you cannot download files bigger than 20MB. So, using a self hosted bot API server, you can overcome those limits.
