I switched to Wire a year ago and haven't looked back. It meets all your requirements, and has end-to-end encryption (based on Signal Protocol) too.


I tried to use Wire with Zhovner (the author of this article) and it consumed 2 full CPU power for a simple voice call. My laptop heated up to 83°C, Zhovner's laptop was also hot. That's pretty strange since Wire has only interface written in javascript, all the core things are in Rust.


Maybe a Wire client bug... I've used Wire for voice+screen share, and my MBP i7 didn't heat up or make noise.
