Running ads won't cover their expenses.

Telegram's server costs are massive. They store all messages, unlike whatsapp and signal, which only act as a relay.

Telegram has much higher file limits (2GB per file and unlimited files) than all other apps. It's used a lot by pirates to share movies and shows. Basically every show comes on some channel/group in Telegram.
