Signal has most of these features as well.

This is really the crux of the matter. No matter how much a program kicks ass, if nobody uses it nobody is going to want to use it.

Getting friends to switch to Telegram from Skype was a pain. Turning around and saying, after they got cozy, "hey Telegram blows, come check out Signal!" would result in rolled eyes and nothing more.
