I recently started using it. It's nice because it comes with E2E encryption and is usable on desktop. Alternatives all have various limitations: Skype (no E2E encryption), Signal (no calls on PCs), iMessage (only usable for Apple users), Wire (requires additional program installation and account creation).

Yes, Signal and WhatsApp both have desktop apps, but they're only for text chat, neither do voice calls like their mobile counterparts.
