You've said this a lot in this thread, but my client on Arch seems to have secret chats.

You screenshot doesn't show how you achieved this or that you're even using Linux. There is no option to start a secret chat for me on a right click. Where did you download your client?

This ticket suggests that there's no such option: https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/issues/871

  • Those are the same link and they’re 10 years old.

    I am using telegram-desktop from aur, I clicked the three dots (…) at the top next to the magnifying glass, then info (i) to get to the profile, then there is a “more” (…) button where there was a “Secret” option.

      Thanks, this looks interesting. However, it seems unofficial. There's no such option in the official client from telegram.org.

      Thanks, I fixed that.
