When I tried to move my family to Telegram, only 2 managed to successfully install and verify a client.

I’m highly technical and telegram refused to auth me on first install, no workaround

Half of them are boomers or have the tech literacy of boomers.

I’ve never had this problem. If they don’t want to download Signal and can’t cope with basic SMS then tough luck.

SMS has issues if youre traveling a lot or want to send large files. Nobody has Signal and Im not going to ask someone I just met to install a new app.

Okay email?
They can only say no. And if they do, their loss.

Asking for someones email when they ask for your whatsapp is weird.
It would be nice if I didnt need a dozen chat apps,each with their own faults, but being able to communicate with friends and family is more important than software evangelizing.
