I much prefer Telegram, but we can agree that both are much better than WhatsApp or iMessage.
Yeah having tried both, Telegram is the most fully featured messenger app around, it's a great app with a lot of good niceties! I'm using signal because it uses E2E encryption by default but otherwise it's trailing a bit on features.
They've been adding stuff at a higher pace though so they're slowly catching up, except where it impacts privacy. All my sticker packs that I have shared (through Signal) with friends are actually originally Telegram sticker packs because they had the jump on that.
And both of them have an iPad app, so in any case go suck it WhatsApp....
