People using Telegram doesn't bother me. People calling Telegram secure or "more secure than Signal" does.

But I'm curious, what makes Telegram an easier sell to your friends and family? I've gotten most people to switch over to Signal and the hardest problem is just getting them to use another app. I would be surprised if the API is the killer feature lol. And very few people seem to be concerned with the phone number thing with Signal. So I'm just curious, what is the features that normal people are missing?
