The Wire iOS native Arm client is fast and can be made officially available for M1 Arm-based Macs. Looking forward to that, as the Slack iOS Arm client is way faster on my M1 Macbook than the desktop memory-hogging Slack.

Did you use unofficial means to install Slack iOS on M1 (which is now patched if I remember right) or is there still a way?

I did it before the patch, but the enforcement is now being done by Fairplay DRM. There are reports that you can extract the iOS app from a jailbroken iPhone, with DRM removed. Then the resulting .ipk will work on M1.
