If I HAD to use one, which one would be better? While Whatsapp is owned by Facebook, they have end to end encryption for the messages, while the metadata is not. However, on Telegram, nothing is end to end encrypted unless you use a secret chat which most regular people are most likely not going to use. I have a feeling Whatsapp would be better but I wanted to hear your thoughts.
if only Apple was willing to support RCS instead of shitty SMS there would be a cross platform service but until then (probably never knowing Apple) we have to rely on third party apps.
