Telegram is just actually superior in terms of features I don't get it.

Telegram is only ever in the new because it's being used by terrorists and criminals. I don't understand why anyone normal would use it.

no criminal ever used whatsapp...?

[โ€“] rusty@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Because it's Zuckerberg free and has some actually good features like custom stickers.

Because it's better than Whatsapp.

It's just a messenger app. Whatsapp is probably used by more criminals on the whole, but there's no reason for that to make the news
