I made telegram and i wanted to be sure Its safe and usable for chatting. Id like to give It between the contacts but idk since It has my phone Number and i put the @ in my profile. In the setting my Number Is hidden to others but idk ik not sure if i should use It or Just keep It for some groups.

What do you think?

I hope I didn't disturb

Added to group can be restricted without premium, but it is stupid that message from strangers can't.

I also mean the other way around. Users who have premium can circumvent your settings.

Nope, you can't turn off that everyone can message you unless you have premium.
