Ukrainian developers propose to create an alternative to Telegram - "Diya. Channels" based on the existing "Diya" application for official communication between authorities, media and users.
New messenger
Idea of Ukrainian developers
Analytical Center of Information Resources plans to launch the service "Diya. Channels" - an alternative to Telegram and other messengers. The new platform will be based on the successful Ukrainian application "Diya" and will provide a secure official channel of communication between authorities, media and citizens.
Advantages of the new service
Developers note several key advantages of "Diya. Channels". Firstly, users will be able to quickly receive important information from official sources, such as the Office of the President, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the media and public organizations. Secondly, the authorities, media and public sector will receive a reliable communication channel. In addition, the service will provide high-quality moderation to protect freedom of speech and human rights.
Concerns around Telegram
Developers point out the risks of using Telegram for data transfer. Research has shown that after deletion, information in this messenger remains for several hours, and it is unknown where it ends up. This fact casts doubt on the security of Telegram.
Legislative initiative
On March 25, bill No. 11115 was registered in the Verkhovna Rada, proposing to regulate the work of Telegram and other platforms disseminating mass information in Ukraine. This could also contribute to the development of alternative Ukrainian services, such as "Diya. Channels".

Hello! I heard that a new messenger “Diya” is being developed in Ukraine. Channels". This is interesting 🤔 Maybe we will finally get a safe and convenient Ukrainian analogue of Telegram?
Анна
Yes, that's a cool idea! I hope the new service will be truly high-quality and secure. Otherwise, there have always been security problems with Telegram 🚫
Виктор
It confuses me that the developers want to authorize through Diyu. Does this mean the government will monitor our communications? 🕵️♂️ Not very cool for privacy.
Юрий
Oh, come on, you're welcome to grumble! 🙄 Finally, we will have our own Ukrainian messenger from trusted developers. It's great that the authorities are working on such projects.
Иван
Hmm, will it be in “Diya. Channels" the ability to create private chats and groups? This is a very useful feature in Telegram. 💬 It would be great if the developers added it too.
Ольга
On the one hand, it’s good that we will receive official information from the authorities and the media. 📰 But on the other hand, how are they going to moderate the content? What if censorship starts?
Василий
Yeah, all these new technologies and applications are a waste of money and time! 💸 Why fence a garden when everything works fine anyway? A waste of energy.
Жанна
Vasily, you are as always! 🙄 You need to keep up with the times, not lag behind. Messengers are very popular now, and it would be cool to have our own Ukrainian version with modern features like authorization through “Diya”.
