Official Telegram app : CPU hog
There are 2 versions, one is Telegram Desktop that you can get from their GitHub page, the other one is available on AppStore. I personally use the latter and it’s pretty much negligible in terms of battery impact.

‘I will show you how safe Telegram is’
The fact that it locks you into using their servers, does not distribute on F-Droid (only Google Play OR an APK with an insecure update mechanism), and has a completely closed-source "abusive message filter" module server side, that could functionally be used for censorship, storing messages for future decryption, or any other number of nefarious purposes - we have no idea since it's not open source (https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server/blob/main/.gitmod...).
Additionally, you cannot distribute branded forks or Signal, and if you do fork it, your fork is not allowed to connect to Signal's "official" OWS (open whisper systems) servers - hostility to federation should be viewed with prejudice and suspicion at the very least, it suggests a vested interest in a single point of failure (or control), which goes against user interests.

"The Signal client is built non-reproducibly, so you actually don't know whether it's running the source code available on Github."
It’s actually the signal server that isn’t reproducible because of the abusive message filter that’s in a private repository. It’s clear as day here: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server
