As far as I'm concerned, Signal is superior in every way. Telegram simply has gained a lot of publicity and increased its user base (which is critical for IM) thanks to E. Snowden.

- fredleblanc 11y agoA friend and I downloaded Signal to try it out, and just couldn't get anything to work. I'm on iOS 8, the app would just crash anytime I hit any button to make an action (send a message, even delete my account). On his end (he was on iOS 9), it said it connected to me, but his messages just got lost in the ether in between us. I mean, I'm a technical guy. I don't understand what either of us was doing wrong. Have you seen anything like this in your experience?

- jhasse 11y agoTelegram has better cloud sync. Signal doesn't have a desktop app AFAIK, only a Chrome plugin which is still in development.
