      Discord is written in Javascript, React, Elixir, and Rust. The desktop application uses the electron framework.

      100% FREE &amp; OPEN: Telegram has a fully documented and free API for developers, open source apps and verifiable builds to prove the app you download is built from the exact same source code that is published.
      POWERFUL: You can create group chats with up to 200,000 members, share large videos, documents of any type (.DOCX, .MP3, .ZIP, etc.) up to 2 GB each, and even set up bots for specific tasks. Telegram is the perfect tool for hosting online communities and coordinating teamwork.
      RELIABLE: Built to deliver your messages using as little data as possible, Telegram is the most reliable messaging system ever made. It works even on the weakest mobile connections.
      FUN: Telegram has powerful photo and video editing tools, animated stickers and emoji, fully customizable themes to change the appearance of your app, and an open sticker/GIF platform to cater to all your expressive needs.
      SIMPLE: While providing an unprecedented array of features, we take great care to keep the interface clean. Telegram is so simple you already know how to use it.
      PRIVATE: We take your privacy seriously and will never give any third parties access to your data. You can delete any message you ever sent or received for both sides, at any time and without a trace. Telegram will never use your data to show you ads.

Tor Browser Launcher is intended to make the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB) easier to maintain and use for GNU/Linux users. It downloads the same TBB from torproject.org that everyone else uses, and it doesn't alter it in any way. But it does make it much more usable, and it makes the task of keeping it up-to-date more secure.
      You install torbrowser-launcher from your distribution's package manager and it handles everything else, including:
      
        Downloading the most recent version of TBB for you, in your language and for your architecture
        Automatically updating (while preserving your bookmarks and preferences)
        Verifying the TBB's GnuPG signature
        Includes AppArmor profiles to make a Tor Browser compromise not as bad (in some distros)
        Adding a Tor Browser application launcher to your desktop environment's menu
        Lets you set Tor Browser as your default browser
        Optionally playing a modem sound when you open Tor Browser (because Tor is so slow)
