Yep.

Telegram is a decent middle ground. UI/UX matters, I'm not sure how the folks at Signal are completely missing that point.

The Signal UI is OK, as a competitor to SMS. But it's terrible compared to Telegram. This matters to non-technical people, it's how you get them to use it. Plus the seamless connection between devices - that's crucial. I can chat using whatever device is in front of me.
