Wire's apps feel slow and bloated on both desktop and mobile. Compared to Telegram, Wire is almost unusable.

As a user, Wire has been fast and reliable and usable (even by non-techies) on iOS for several years, across a wide range of network conditions and hostile networks.

They are contributing to an IETF protocol (“MLS”) for E2E messaging, which is a long-term path to messenger interoperability.

I have not had the described slowness on Android and Windows (I think I tried it on Linux too) so I'm not sure what the parent commentator is speaking of.

Edit:

a long-term path to messenger interoperability.

I remember when we had that before E2E was popularized, it was standardized, and then walled gardens broke their interoperability in the name of (claimed) better user experience and user numbers.
