Would also like to hear your thoughts on why / whether Signal and Wire are actually good recommendations.
What's weird is: if you don't know what any of this stuff is, why would you feel the need to express strong opinions about it? Is it really your belief that intuition and a drive-by reading of some slides on Github page can bring you up to speed with the field? I read every "Call Me Maybe" post and I absolutely do not think I'd have a chance in hell at getting a distributed commit protocol right. Hell: I "specialize" in cryptography and feel the same way about crypto protocols!
My thoughts about Signal and Wire are that I did a good job of relating in the post you're talking about what I think about Signal and Wire.
So I have no opinion of Wormhole, other than to say that (1) it is new, and experts I have listened to in the past say to be wary of new approaches, and (2) it (according to its own documentation) has some rather extreme limitations that make it arguably not a good fit as a general purpose solution to encrypted file transfer.

As I don't think I have referred to any post by you, I don't know what you think about those solutions. If you are referring to the Latacora article (I think you wrote it, but I'm not sure because it doesn't specify its authors), it says (IMO) very little about the merits of Signal and Wire compared to other systems, and nothing at all about the specific criticisms I made in my comment you originally replied to.
