Well I don't really care to save chat logs from my friends. If they send something "important", I can save it in the chat so it never disappears, or I can screenshot it.

They only disappear after 24 hours unless you save them by tapping on them. Depending on your relationship, that could be a good thing. I mean Telegram added disappearing messages for a reason.

Yes, millions and millions of people use it daily. It's the easiest way to send videos and photos to friends. I send so much stuff to my girlfriend and vice versa that doesn't sit in my messenger and clog it up. Meanwhile my Telegram chats are full of tens of thousands of photos and 99.9% of them are garbage that I wish didn't exist still like selfies of me making stupid faces.

I'm not acting like snapchat is private, or that screenshots don't exist. They do, I don't care. It's just nice that if I send my friends a stupid selfie, or my girlfriend a lewd, they are not sitting in their messenger for them to come across a few months or years later making shit awkward.

That is fair, I respect that. I think I'm just used to being able to go back and reference something we said to each other from the past.

Thanks for the response!
