Use Telegram on your phone, tablet, and 2 computers

Now do that same thing with Signal

It's night and day how much better Telegram works when you have multiple devices

Bears repeating. Telegram is just so much better than any alternative service if you have multiple devices connected simultaneously. Wire also does poorly.

Well it's pretty easy as Telegram doesn't encrypt anything at all and stores all contacts and message history server side.

(yes, there is a secret chat feature which is encrypted, but unlike Signal it can only connect with a single client and you can't even choose which one so it's very frustrating in practice when chatting with people who have more than 1 client setup)

Now try that with a secret chat.

Telegram makes it easy by cheating with privacy and security.
