Right. But one of these is secure and the other isn’t. State action against telegram is eminent.

These users who are coming from these platforms (WhatsApp, Telegram) don't care about that. If Signal is still unable to stay online then the users will leave and they will try the second best option. (Even if it is less secure).

This has now become a usability and reliability issue for Signal.
