I actually feel like Signal has done a better job than most in this respect. The interface is attractive, they make things like key resetting reasonably parseable, and there are nice mainstream features like built-in gif searching.
That said I've fought with syncing problems at times, mostly surrounding the desktop app. Presumably it has to do with the authoritative copy being phones in peer to peer mode, instead of a server, but it's still pretty annoying sometimes.
