Signal’s desktop client is barely good enough to check a box while Telegram’s desktop clients are as good or better than its mobile clients. Furthermore, its desktop clients are native and reasonably efficient.
This is huge to me. I spend a large portion of my day in front of computers, so messaging services that take the desktop seriously are much more likely to catch my attention.

For me synchronization between desktop and mobile client is a big issue. Some messages simply don't appear on one device and vice versa. Don't know why, though.
