Telegram is better in pretty much every way, and has been for almost a decade

Messaging Apps are only as good as whatever Apps most people use.

Regarding security, yes. Other than that, Beeper allows you to centralize all kinds of messaging apps into one pretty nice (and open-source AFAIK) UI. Currently using it for all my hardly-used communication channels.
