Honestly, I have experience with both and Telegram is far superior. Yes, it was created by "Russian Zuck", and it was also blocked in Russia for a long time. It is argued, if FSB has keys to decrypt Telegram. I personally did not see evidence to that. Some of the options widely used in the EE: - by default chats are not e2e but there is a quite secret option. - built-in proxy support to add another encryption layer and avoid blockings. - there are news channels which is a very convenient way of getting and sharing content. Yes, WhatsApp is getting these now. There is a ton of other features which are only now coming to WhatsApp, which has e2e by default for every chat. On the other hand, lately, I feel that Telegram is going to also have-it-all which is annoying. Even stories now
