Weird comparison.

WhatsApp is a kinda secure messaging app - small groupchats and personal chats first.

Signal is a secure messaging app - small groupchat and personal chats only.

TG is an app for big groupchats and channels, with dozens of people writing to one chat simultaneously, discussing big posts etc. It’s, once again, like IRC, just proprietary, with history and sharing files. Or like a social network without friends and feeds.

Honestly I can’t even blame TG for enshittificatory practices, because it gives so much more freedom to use it however one wants than the others. Even though I prefer to blame everything. All these things have taken a lot of work to create.
