I avoid the Apple “ecosystem” altogether and consider iCloud a surveillance tool + Samsung has had superior hardware for years.
But part of my job is to make sure Telegram works better than the competition on all platforms, so I have to use everything.

Story circles in group chats had to be removed after internal testing, because the ability to quickly open people’s profile pages was lost.

We decided to make formatting premium for now out of concern that promoters and spammers will start embedding links to advertise their referral links and Telegram will become a giant junk marketplace.
Telegram stories are a new genre not only because they are very visible right in the chat list, but also because they can be cross posted in the profile page grids. Active links in these places can become a spammer’s dream. Again, there is a reason why platforms like Instagram don’t allow clickable links in captions for posts.
Spam is a tricky animal: if you set the wrong incentives, it will be so commercially appealing so it will become next to impossible to stop it.
Having said that, other parts of formatting (bold, italic etc) in captions can easily become available for free. We just paywalled all formatting for now as it was easier to implement. However, the current limitation is easy to bypass, as anyone who wants to emphasize some text can simply add it on the media in the editor instead of using the caption.

Stories from Telegram
An increasing number of users are starting to see stories posted on behalf of Telegram. These stories visually showcase some of the story features from the messenger’s latest update.
Previously, we reported that the Telegram team intends to share information about app updates in a new format (in addition to the long-standing text updates in the messenger’s official account).
It isn’t possible to hide these stories from the main screen using the same method as hiding stories from contacts: the standard hiding method is not available in this case.

Does The Ability to Post Stories Without Having Premium Subscription Depend on Your Region?
In the version 10.0.0 of Telegram's mobile applications, posting Stories became available even to accounts without a Telegram Premium subscription. However, many users have discovered that this feature hasn't appeared for them.
The editorial team at @tginfoen believes that the ability to post Stories for users without a premium subscription depends on the country's phone code linked to the Telegram account.
For instance, in Russia, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, India and Iran, publishing Stories without Telegram Premium isn't possible, whereas users from Belarus and Kazakhstan are permitted to do so.
A detailed article about the editorial team's observations and story publication in other countries is available at the following link:

Telegram Is Preparing to Bring Stories to Channels
According to crawled data from @tgcrawl, changes were made in Telegram for Android that indicate that stories are coming for channels.
From the changes we can guess that there will be a boosting system similar to Discord’s. For example, the number of the stories that can be posted might depend on the number of boosts received by the channel form its subscribers.
Apparently, only Telegram Premium users will be able to boost channels.

Updates to Web Bots, Stories for Channels and Channel Boosts
Telegram's Beta version for Android update hints at several upcoming features, as analyzed by the @tginfo team.
Channel stories and boosts
It seems that Telegram is working on a "boost" system for channels, reminiscent of Discord's. Boosts will allow channel subscribers to vote for their favorite channels. These boosts might unlock special features for administrators, such as the ability to post stories to the channel. The exact features and rewards based on this system are still unknown. There could be different levels with varying limits and functionalities, and the number of stories available for posting might depend on the number of boosts received.
It seems like only Telegram Premium subscribers will be able to boost, and as of now, it looks like Premium users will have only one boost in their subscription available at no extra cost. Telegram aims to introduce this feature to channel administrators in hopes that they will encourage their subscribers to give their boost to their channel. To facilitate quick access to the boost sending menu, a deep link will be provided. Users will be able to change which channel receives their boost only once a day.
Story enhancements
Users will be able to add background audio to stories.
An option to pin a story to a post will be introduced.
Improved login confirmation system
Instead of receiving login notifications via personal messages from the Telegram account, they will now appear above the chat list.
Statistics
Channel statistics will now include data about subscribers with a Telegram Premium subscription.
View photos or videos only once
A new self-destruct option will be added, which prevents media files from being viewed more than once.
Web bot platform update
App strings indicate that in the next update, Telegram will allow users to add shortcuts to launch Web bots from the Android app's side menu.
This feature might be available exclusively to select partner bots. It's highly probable that this shortcut feature was specifically designed for @Wallet, but it might be utilized for other partner bots in the future.
The Web bot platform itself has been renamed to Mini Apps, and using them will require users to accept separate terms of service.
Previously, an ability for Web-bots to store their data on Telegram servers was spotted in the app, with the data being synchronized across the user's devices. @tginfo speculates that this feature could've been developed for the recently announced non-custodial TON wallet. Testing suggests that the data storage feature in Telegram might also be exclusive to select partner bots.
It's important to note that all this information is based on speculations from the Beta version of the app, so the features might undergo some changes by the time of release.

Crypto wallet integration in Telegram
In the new version of Telegram, users who have previously used the @wallet bot now have a section with a crypto wallet in the application menu. Telegram promises to provide other users with quick access to the wallet in November of this year.
TON Foundation together with Telegram announced their partnership within the framework of the TOKEN2049 conference - presentation and photos from the conference.
Now @wallet will have direct access to all 800 million users of the messenger (excluding US citizens) by integrating the service into the menu.
In addition, Telegram will provide priority access to its advertising platform to TON projects and partners.
In 5 years, TON plans to reach 30% of all active Telegram users.

Years ago, we built TON – a scalable and fast blockchain technology. TON was designed to serve hundreds of millions of social media users. Since 2020, the TON technology has been maintained and improved by the open source community.
Last year, we enabled our users to buy and sell Telegram usernames and IDs on Fragment – a TON-based auction platform. It was a phenomenal success. Telegram sold $120M worth of digital assets in auctions, while early buyers of some Telegram-related digital assets – such as Telegram anonymous numbers – have seen a 27x (!) increase in value after only 9 months.
This success showed the potential of Web 3.0 on Telegram. For the first time in history, users were allowed to own their social media identities directly. Now we want to integrate blockchain technologies deeper into Telegram. To do that, we worked with the folks from the TON community to add their TON Wallet to Telegram as a mini-app.
Starting this November, TON Wallet will be included in the settings and attachment menus for all our users outside the US and some other countries (if you added @wallet and have the latest version of Telegram, you can already see the wallet option in the menus). This step will allow developers to enable hundreds of new valuable features – similar to those pioneered on Fragment. TON Wallet, a third-party mini-app inside Telegram, will introduce a whole new dimension of Web 3.0 to hundreds of millions of Telegram users.

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.

How The Boost System Works in Telegram Channels
The @tginfo editors have studied new images and strings on the Telegram translation platform and assume that the boost system on channels will work as follows:
• Only subscribers with Telegram Premium will be able to boost Telegram channels.
• If a Premium user received a paid subscription as a gift, he will not be able to support his favorite channels with a boost.
• Users with Premium will be able to choose which of the channels they subscribe to to give their boost. This channel can be changed no more than once a day.
• Judging by the screenshots, the boost has an expiration date, but it is not yet known how it will be determined (we assume that the boost expires along with the Premium subscription or it will have more complex logic).
• It is likely that information about users and the expiration date of their boost will be displayed in a special tab inside the channel statistics section.
• There, administrators will be able to view how many users with registered Telegram Premium are subscribed to the channel and what their share is of the number of all subscribers.
• It will be possible to share a special link in the format t.me/tginfoen?boost, which will allow authors to “campaign” for support of their channel, and users to quickly transfer their boost to the channel.
• Judging by the available screenshots, to publish stories on behalf of a channel, the channel needs to reach level 1. For this to happen, the channel needs to receive at least 5 boosts from its subscribers (the value may change by the release).
• Information about the number of active channel boosts can be available to all users.
• Whether other levels with their own advantages will be introduced, or whether Telegram at an early stage will limit itself to only the first, is still unknown.
