Depends on your use case. Signal is definitely more privacy focused, but telegram has more people using it and is easier for people to use and understand. Telegram is very akin to Discord, in that all the data is stored somewhere you have no control over.
Also telegram is feature rich over signal. Son you have better user base and features in one hand versus e2e encryption by default on the other.
