It says his account is limited but doesn't mention if any of his messages got removed. Also, what were the messages about? All I know is that telegram doesn't allow porn or calls for violence.

Judging by the title of this post, I thought it was going to be about how Google is censoring telegram posts (only an issue if you downloaded Telegram from the Playstore).

A rule followed about as much as pot laws.

For an end-to-end encrypted service

Telegram doesn't have end-to-end ecryption enabled by default. I think only secret chats are end-to-end encrypted whereas everything else isn't. Telegram has their own encryption which hasn't been audited by a third party last time I checked.

to have what it considers permissible content? How would anyone ever know?

Well, as far I know Telegram doesn't go snooping around people's chats, channels or groups. Usually, someone from within complains/snitches and then Telegram checks it out. But I think Telegram usually leave groups and channels alone considering Telegram allows protesters to organize using the app.

I find leftism categorically annoying. Will all the comshit larpers get banned/sent into the timeout corner? Of course not, this only ever cuts one way.

Matrix.Org is the way

Encrypted servers & DMs

element.io is the app you want to use.

Even better if you use a federated server and not the official server.

Which is annoying since the CP spammers cant be banned since they dont have usernames. They seem to target "right wing" telegram groups which is unsurprising given leftists have used that tactic elsewhere.
