ℹ️ Adding telega to our list of clients
Telega is a Telegram client for emacs. As far as we know, it supports deletion properly, and does not have malicious features like other clients. (that would ruin the integrity of Telegram features like the aforementioned deletion)
It also supports E2E ("secret chats").
But be warned: if you are not already a dedicated emacs user, this will most likely be too hard for you to use. It's surprisingly also not very lightweight, as one would expect. But it may be good to know for those that fit this particular niche anyway.
