If you don't consider telegram a well-done cross platform app, then what are your standards? There is literally no other app that is as X-platform as telegram. Nothing by MS, Facebook, Google, Apple or any other company in the world comes close to releasing an app for Every mobile and desktop platform. On top of that, Telegram is better in performance and offer far more features than competitors who release in fewer platforms... FOR FREE. There are so many more things to praise before thinking of any criticism about emojis not looking right before sending in Linux desktop lol.

How about allowing e2e encryption on desktop?

It’s a business decision, has nothing to do with cross-platform quality of client app.
But it does decrease the quality of the app on specific platforms.

I don’t know if there are any in this sort of space that I would consider well-done. But I do know that a single-codebase mobile app port to desktop is unlikely to ever qualify, even if in some other regards it’s excellent.
