I don't think we should be celebrating that the chats are not sent in plaintext over the net in 2019. That's not the point.

I've done my research. Whatsapp has encrypted chats by default, Telegram doesn't. Also Whatsapp UX is much simpler and I value simplicity. Telegram is starting to look like a spaceship with so many features.
