Writing a blatant Telegram clone using Qt, QML and Rust. And C++
> I believe they have put the most love into their user interfaces out of all the chat programs I have seen
Absolutely true.
Telegram: Best UI. Signal: Best privacy. WhatsApp: Largest userbase.
Other than the 3 big ones, I recently found Jami [1]
Good UI, though not as good as Telegram. Arguably better privacy than Signal - you don't even need an account if you don't want. Zero userbase. Free software.

Ergo Chat – A modern IRC server written in Go
Hey, your project looks interesting, thanks for building and sharing it.
One question: are you aware of Jami[1], f.k.a. Ring? If so, how does it compare to Snikket?
I see that Snikket requires a server, whereas Jami is P2P. The benefit of a server is probably that messages can be stored centrally and not on each device. But I can see pros and cons of either approach.

How to copy a file between devices?
I am surprised to not see Jami ( http://jami.net ) mentioned here yet. It is a GNU project and is fully cross platform. I use it to send files and messages between my devices, as easy as Telegram or Whatsapp.
