      What uses do you see out of Telegram and WhatsApp? Both are not meant for the same purposes. One is a realtime blog/forum hybrid, the other is a messenger. Different purposes.

      You want E2EE? You have options exceedingly better than WhatsApp, called XMPP and Matrix. Both utilise OMEMO E2EE.

      Telegram client is open source, WhatsApp client is not. Telegram has a client for Linux desktop, WhatsApp doesn’t.

      I don’t understand the Telegram hate.

        Thing with Telegram is that end-to-end encryption is not enabled by default (thus only used rarely) and Telegram doesn’t really have any viable business model, besides being funded by a billionaire. That raises some questions. I really like Telegram, though.
