Why do people choose Telegram over Signal? Signal encrypts everything by default, unlike Telegram which only "encrypts" messages in a (iirc) secure or secret chat. Fortunately, EU is forcing all major gatekeepers' messaging apps to be able to communicate with other messaging apps. I, finally, will be able to break free from WhatsApp and use Signal. Uninstalling WhatsApp and requesting for a deletion of my account; a dream come true soon.
