    It’s better than Meta’s data-scraping WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger. At the time I moved to it, it was more user friendly than Signal.

    Assuming of course you don’t mean sending an actual telegram, because I don’t live in the early 1900s when that was cool.

    Unlike WhatsApp, it has a desktop client and you can use the same account on multiple devices at the same time.

    It’s good for sharing images or videos instead of sending a text messages. Especially if not on an iPhone.

    I use it because a lot of Ukraine war bloggers are on there. Pretty much the only reason I have it

    It’s not a meta property. Aside from that, it does what I need it to do, that is serve as a bridge between the apple walled garden and the android ecosystem until standards take hold again in the mobile space. The market fragmentation sucks.
