Main issue for me is that no one, I know uses any other app than WhatsApp.

I use telegram for piracy but wish people would move over to Telegram or Signal. Majority seems to be stubborn on WhatsApp because of easiness and laziness.

Telegram is less private then whatsapp, unless you use the private chats it’s not even encrypted.

It’s not so much laziness as the reason you’ve given - everyone else is on WhatsApp. Why would I move to a new messaging app when I literally can’t message the people I want to message on it cause they don’t have it.

Majority of the people I know, forgot to include that. However if everyone else thinks like that, no one would ever change platforms.
