The user interface itself is amazing, true seamless multiple device support - including web clients (with your drafts synced on all your devices too), live location sharing, polls, live voice channels, good stickers, bots, public groups/channels, 2gb file sharing, video messages, usernames, etc.
Signal is only good at doing one thing, and that’s encryption. It lacks so many useful features that Telegram has.
Signal fanboys downvoting you.
Try Telegram. It’s feature rich and works flawlessly on multiple devices.
Try wefwef.app (go to this website and install it as an app/add it to your homescreen), it’s simply amazing.
As for network errors, try switching to an instance close to your house with a low ping, it’ll make a big difference. Go to https://fediverse.observer/map and select Lemmy instances.

That’s what I always said. Signal only does one thing right, encryption, and that’s it. The rest isn’t great, they kept the server side code hidden for 1 year to implement the shitty MoxieCoin (so Moxie and his friends could get rich) and removed SMS recently.
I moved to Telegram and the features are so great there’s no way I’ll ever use Signal. If you really need E2EE you can use it in personal chats. For regular chats, the fact that you have access to all your messages from everywhere is really convenient.
Because the only good thing about Signal is it’s encryption.
