📰 For those who haven't read the blog, Telegram directly stated that all subsequent gifts will only be through auction, not like before.

There are pros and cons to gift auctions.
The pros relate to the fact that Telegram will earn more from the stars that were purchased (regardless of currency) in advance for these auctions, as well as preventing botting (software for auto-purchases).
The cons: newcomers to the crypto sphere and poorer users will find it harder to receive gifts due to higher bids from wealthier users. Although there are plenty of NFTs that can be bought, for example, to personalize profiles and channels and to gift to relatives.

🏆 The blog also says that the numbers of such gifts will depend on the auction position. That is, I assume, the gift will be №1 after the upgrade, even if you delay a bit in improving it. This, of course, is an incentive for everyone to spend as many stars as possible for the top spot.
••• For example, in one round with 20 places, if you take 12th place in the second round, you will get gift №32 upon upgrading in any case.

💭 Any thoughts on this?

📰 Returning to Russian realities. 🇷🇺 The State Duma called the decision to restrict calls on Telegram and WhatsApp the right one. In an interview with the propaganda agency TASS, Sergei Boyarsky, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, said that «blocking calls on messengers has been completely justified». He was, of course, referring to the supposed fight against fraudsters.
Let's return to the decision implemented on August 11th of this year, when Roskomnadzor degraded voice calls on WhatsApp* and Telegram. I consider it absolutely correct and timely, and it also curbed the wave of fraudulent activity, which was primarily carried out against our citizens through these two platforms.


🎪 Mr. Nemkin compared these two most popular messengers in Russia with the national messenger MAX, which has a «completely different security structure» and a dedicated service that promptly responds to user complaints.
A huge number of such suspicious accounts and attempts to commit fraud were blocked. And this suggests that there's every hope for optimism about the future, that Max will ultimately become the platform that will ultimately strive to eliminate fraudulent activity or, if attempted, will be able to quickly stop it and protect our people.

In August, RKN announced that Telegram and WhatsApp were being used by criminals as their primary communication channels, reminding them that the Antifraud system, which blocks calls with spoofed numbers, has been in operation in Russia since 2024.
As a result, almost all such calls have migrated to foreign messaging apps that refuse to ensure the safety of Russian users and society.

#tip: 📰 Quoting is always better than just replying.
↩️ Update 10.2 with "Replies 2.0" brought quoting excerpts of texts, which made it very convenient to respond to certain words. But there are those moments that make it worth using it rather than just swiping a message to reply.

1. Quoting always preserves the context of the reply message. Few people know, but unlike simple replies to messages, the text you quoted will always be saved in your messages in reply blocks, even if some characters and words change in the replied messages. This, for example, helps a lot in controversial discussions, which your opponents can substitute for the context in the reply tray by simply editing messages. Please note that if you have highlighted a specific piece of text, and something has already changed in this message, an error will occur when sending it.

There are also some android clients who, even with a simple swipe on a message, always capture the entire text of the selected message for quoting. It is very convenient and practical.

2. As a rule, in the quoted blocks, instead of just answers, there is more area. This helps, for example, if other users did not have to click and go to distant messages, it is very useful if distant messages do not load after clicking on the quotes block. In regular replies to messages, there is always a small reply block, let alone a quote. You can also click on the quote block once to expand it, and the second time to go to the replied message.

Well, that’s right. I was also surprised when I tried to quote but the feature wasn’t there. I just realized that my automatic message translator was on, meaning the option isn’t available when the automatic translation feature is active.

However, I actually found an alternative way to quote when the automatic translation feature is active. You have to reply to the message as usual and then select the quote option.

That’s not the right way. I mean, just swipe the message as usual to reply, and there should be an option to pick the sentence you want to quote.

Look. You can expand the reply block with a quote if it was a reply to a message from another chat (like this one), and if it's a mobile app.. And the lines in the reply block with the quote are limited to 5.

Telegram’s New Interface Is Inaccessible to Users with Visual Impairments

Following the release of Telegram’s newly redesigned mobile apps, users with visual impairments have found themselves at a significant disadvantage. According to user reports, the elements in the app’s bottom navigation bar are no longer identifiable by screen readers such as VoiceOver. The buttons in the bottom panel cannot be detected by screen-reading software, and many interface controls no longer receive accessibility focus.

This is not the first time Telegram has faced accessibility issues. Between 2020 and 2023, blind users repeatedly reported numerous bugs — including being unable to scroll through the chat list, access message reactions, or use unlabeled buttons in the settings menu.

Log in to Telegram via Passkeys Without Codes or Phone Numbers

In the future, Telegram plans to introduce authentication via Passkeys. The first signs of this feature have appeared in the Beta version of Telegram for Android 12.2.8.

The key advantage of Passkeys is the ability to log into your account without entering a phone number or a one-time code. This distinguishes it from logging in via email or Google / Apple ID, which serve merely as alternatives to receiving an SMS code.

A “log in using passkey” button has appeared on the app's login screen. Tapping it launches your password manager, which verifies your identity using Face ID, fingerprint, or your screen lock PIN. From it, the messenger receives your signature, which functions as your login, password, and one-time confirmation code all simultaneously.

Much like email login, this new feature will need to be pre-configured in Telegram’s security settings. The key will be saved on the phone where it was created, but it can be synced with other devices via Google Password Manager, iCloud Passwords, or other applications.

Why is this important?

Reduced reliance on SMS: This makes logging in possible even if you don’t have active sessions and your mobile operator is blocking SMS messages from Telegram.

Security: The Passkey is stored in a secure enclave of your password manager—it cannot be intercepted or entered on a phishing site.

Speed: Login is performed with a single touch via biometrics (face or fingerprint). When you switch phones, the Passkey automatically syncs via your password manager using your Google account or Apple ID.

The feature is currently under development and is not yet fully functional. Stay tuned for news about Telegram Beta versions on our Beta Info channel.
