Bad telegram. Use matrix
Matrix does not have search filter. Actually does not have any search at all in groups
Also there is no way categorise messages by any mean
In telegram I just add a # in the post Then Users tap on the # and all related messages appear
Easy
And fast
More functional at the expense of privacy or security is probably not an argument that will do well here. Most are here to get away from google and privacy/security are big aspects of those.
I'll go without, for both.
Telegram is not google. The clients are open source. And there are degoogled clients on fdroid. And eitherway you can access the channel from any browser without the need of an account
"and privacy/security are big aspects of those". Telegram wrapped their own encryption that isn't e2e by default and iirc had holes in it from a security audit. Many people like shouting across the fence to their neighbours, it has features that many want (seemless voice conferencing). It just isn't secure. You cannot be private without being secure.
Channels and groups are not encrypted in tg. Like this community we now chatting is not encrypted. I dont see anything wrong in that. For the tg encryption security audit , i think its beyond the purpuse of the channel i made so idc.
Do not use Telegram. Use Matrix instead.
Matrix is only good for continous flow chatting
There is no way to categorise and search messages
I dont even know what am i suppost to see here. Global search?
Matrix > Telegram
If anyone can suggest a telegram alternative that can be publicly accessed without an account,can use tags and create a media and text preview from the providing link I'll be more than happy to use that instead
I used telegram after thought
Why not just make a lemmy community? There is no tag feature but you can have it so only moderators post if you wish.
Tags are essential. As all other features I mentioned. There are tons of app lists out there. Git repos,websites,subredits even app stores, none of this option are ideal for a quick post that will provide a brief preview , catecorisation , public accessibility and user comments at the same time.
Lemmy would be great though. It has link previews. Can be webviewed without an account. Has user interaction. There is also progress on the tag system. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/317#issuecomment-1688384524 If it ever goes upstream and implemented it will be perfect
If possible could you put this information in a more easy to access and public location? Perhaps a simple website or even something in a pastebin would be more convenient and accessible than in a telegram group. Thanks!
That would require a lot more work. The idea behind the channel is to have an instant share and categorisation of an app I and other found and want to share and then use the related channel group to comment about it
