Isaac,
I understand everything you say up to this point, though the
details
still seem circumstantial to me.
However, could you explain to me the point of comparison between
XMPP/IRC and Telegram? Are you suggesting that XMPP/IRC work by
interfacing with a proprietary server-side protocol?
If not, help me understand what you mean.
