Element X is a completely different beast though. Not only is it a successful Rust rewrite, but they also fixed the system architecture of Matrix to improve speeds. They haven't matched Telegram's usability though, but they're close to Signal's.
only the crypto SDK is Rust, the frontend and other app code is kotlin
they did that by storing a lot less of the state on your phone in my understanding, and that means it won't work as whell when offline or on a slow connection, and will use more mobile data from the cap. that is, if I'm correct.
