I wonder why Signal’s download size is so much larger than the competition? Intuition says it would be smaller
Signal wrote their own open source protocol, libsignal, to provide end to end encryption; or as they put it "a ratcheting forward secrecy protocol that works in synchronous and asynchronous messaging environments." Source I'd wager good money a chunk of that space is for said library and dependencies PLUS the regular rigamarole for an Android app.

session wont connect. is anyone else having issues?

Signal impersonation risk?
Session's reasoning seems much more... cagey. Telling people to recreate their identities themselves sounds a little like the Threema stopgap solution, but it's much sloppier (I can't imagine end users WANT to recreate their account and communicate this to all their contacts via a third party). They're talking about implementing this eventually, but the ticket for doing so was closed right after saying this.
