Hello, I have a few questions and I'll clarify underneath.

1. How does Telegram's E2EE data look? Could someone that has access to the stream tell its Telegram? Or is that undecipherable?

2. Does Telegram have an official Onion site?

3. Will one's account get frozen if they are using Telegram's clearweb sites on Tor?

Clarity:

I use Facebook at work and use Tor to masktheat fact. Fb has locked my account a half dozen times because I'm using their clearweb site. They have an Onion address, but E2EE chats won't load & E2EE chats are about 98% of what I do on Fb. So I'm looking for a messaging alternative.

If an IT deptartment can't tell the app is the app, that works best. If they can though, using the website over Tor would be better for me.

Just trying to get things straight before I start bugging people to move. They wouldn't still be on Fb if that wasn't hard.

Thanks

In Telegram's Christmas update, channels can set wallpapers, emoji statuses and profile logos, users can repost channel messages to stories, Telegram Premium can be given to multiple people at once, giveways can include additional prizes and much more.

According to a leaked Russian-language PDF produced by BCS Financial Group, a Russian financial services company.

These are the two options for web apps on the Telegram website. Is there any real difference between the two?

From what I can tell, the only way is to scroll back through the channel and locate each message you've sent individually. That's a pain in the ass. Is there a way to find them in one place?

Hello,

I just got my Telegram account banned.

I raised the issue to volunteers following this article: https://www.alphr.com/telegram-why-is-my-number-banned/

I guess they might have too strict spam bots

or do you feel confident that Telegram will continue to do basic messaging well without bombarding you with needless features?

Signal started doing stories too but I believe you can completely disable them in settings. Telegram’s cannot be. And people are worried about them pushing premium although I feel that point is a bit overblown.

From Pavel Durov's Telegram channel (t.me/durov):

The day has come. Telegram channels can now post Stories!

Stories on Telegram are more visible than in most apps, because they are displayed right on the main screen. Obviously, we couldn’t let channels flood users with Stories without reasonable limits: this would create too much noise in your Chats.

This is why we designed the Boost system. With Boosts, users can give their favorite channels the ability to post stories. More boosts mean more stories per day for a channel. Every 24 hours users can reassign their boost.

In the future, boosts will also unlock other features for channels, such as custom reactions, emoji statuses or custom backgrounds. We’ll also introduce more ways for channels to get Boosts.

To prevent abuse, only Premium users can boost channels. It shouldn’t be hard to collect Boosts for channels with real subscribers, while those with fake followers may struggle (larger channels need more Boosts to unlock stories).

Let the Boost Hunt begin! 🏹

From Durov's official telegram channel (https://t.me/durov)

🔍This month we changed how searching public channels and groups works on Telegram.

Previously, public channels with more subscribers would appear higher in the search results. That system worked fine for a while, but was increasingly getting abused by spammers. That's why we now only count genuine subscribers of channels for ranking.

For example, channels with more Premium subscribers will generally rank higher. However, if a specific Premium subscriber joins too many channels, they won't give those channels as big of a search ranking boost. Of course, the new search also prioritizes results from your country.

The feedback on this change is overwhelmingly positive. Channels with an inflated subscribers count have become less visible, while useful groups and mini-apps are now attracting more users. 🚀
