I ”trust” Signal the most because there is 100% transparency, I can look into the inner workings of the app and see what it does at all time.

Telegram is the best (in sense of privacy) message app you can actually manage to get your friends and family to use.

In my case, the hardest app to convince my friends and family to use is Telegram.

There’s definitely the stigma that Telegram is only used by criminals

Here, telegram is effectively used only for piracy.

Wait what? I thought Telegram pretty much was Discord but for people who prefer phones over computers.

Wasn’t there also a controversy where some people believed that telegram was private and secure, but that only was for a very limited subset of their features?

Disclaimer: I’ve only ever installed telegram once for one single person, but promptly removed it afterward for sending out messages to some of my contacts on its own, so I have no clue how it actually works. Feel free to correct or educate me.
