Same here, the app has way better features than WhatsApp, which of course is the obvious alternative. Signal is supposedly very good and has a desktop app to match, but no Windows Phone client makes it a deal breaker for me
Likewise. I detest the organisation and everything they stand for. And yet, i have to use it, because lots of my didn't family are on WhatsApp and not on telegram
I use it of course and as far as the clients go, they are ok.
I trust its owners less and less with each passing day though.
