    Here in Australia Signal tends to be used by the left leaning (because of Snowden’s endorsement) and Telegram by the right leaning (they hate Snowden).

    Also there are a lot of large chat groups on Telegram - not so many groups on Signal from what I noticed.

    I don’t understand why people would share their phone number with strangers like that.

      I’m Australian but living in the USA now, and practically everyone I chat to uses Facebook Messenger after switching from MSN Messenger when it shut down. I’ve got Signal and Telegram installed but barely anyone I know uses them.
