i've been trying to figure out signal vs telegram and it seems pretty divided across the web tbh
edit: yeah this doesn't look good. when i last delved into this a year ago i liked that telegram's server's were distributed across the globe and signal's weren't from what i remember
I've had better experience with Telegram tbh and the features are a bit more developed.
on the other hand, the crypto behind telegram is not nearly as well audited and studied as the crypto behind signal.
see https://buttondown.email/cryptography-dispatches/archive/cryptography-dispatches-the-most-backdoor-looking/
also read the reception section of the telegram Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegram_(software)#Reception and compare to the the one in the Signal article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_(software)#Reception

If it doesn't get better by February I'll see if I can make my own telegram ultimatum 😅
