planes: Support The Spirit of Freedom 😶‍🌫️

freedom is fragile. it requires constant attention and action 🎯

in 2018, paper planes became a global symbol of resistance. millions of people launched them to show that freedom of speech is stronger than bans and pressure. this simple gesture united people worldwide in a powerful stand against injustice 👋

six years later, the fight is not over. on august 24th, Pavel Durov was detained in france. although he has been released, he remains under investigation and is restricted from leaving the country ✋

this situation is not just about one person — it’s about defending the principles of independence, truth, and openness that Durov has stood for throughout his life 👊

every ✈sent is more than just a symbol. it’s a voice. it’s a stand for the values that unite us.

today, the planes take flight once again. together, we can remind the world that freedom has no expiration date 💪

launch @planes ✈
support freedom

Thanks for having our back! Together, we’ll smash it and make communication effortless for everyone ✈️

a quick word about the progress bar

see that line filling up at the top?

that’s your progress bar, and it grows with every bit of energy you spend. 1 energy = 1 point ✈️

each level of the progress bar unlocks rewards for you, ranging from extra planes to metal boosters (like the ones you can grab in the shop).

happy flying!

only 24 hours left ✈️

in just one day, the progress bar will reset, and an all-new event will begin.

don’t miss out — there’s still time to grab plenty of amazing rewards!

can you imagine? he launched an entire 10 000 paper planes in just three days! 😱

a brief summary

in 3 days, we launched 1,888,652 paper planes in support of Pasha @durov

the event has come to an end, but our commitment to the freedom of communication will stay with us forever ✈️

planes isn’t just a miniapp, it’s a platform for meaningful events and bringing people together.

the next step is coming tonight.

what happened?

hi flyers! we’ve got some unfortunate news to share. This night our bot was completely deleted by Telegram without any explanation.

No messages, no news, no attentions at all

all Stars donations ⭐️ have been lost, and Telegram support isn’t responding yet. but don’t worry we’re here to stay, to be brave!

a new bot is already in the works, and all your balances and achievements will be restored

we’re not giving up — let’s keep flying forward together ✈️

we believe our rapid growth might have ruffled a few feathers.

they took us down, but we’re not fazed. freedom will keep soaring! 😎

we’ve shifted our course by 90 degrees ✈️

details are coming soon.

stay tuned! 😎

phew… what a week! ✈️

in just 7 days, we climbed to 99th place in overall MAU, shook up all of Telegram, lost our bot, and brought it back.

we’re the only miniapp to survive a block. we’re making history!

⭐️1.7m users
⭐️ 500k+ Telegram followers
⭐️ 5m+ planes sent

now it’s time to get ready for christmas and make some wishes.

btw, who’s sending planes to santa? 🎅

we just cracked the mystery behind the ban

looks like Telegram couldn’t handle the heat from all our activity and the sheer number of paper planes we sent, so they hit us with a block.

guess we went a little too hard rolling out that new feature 😂

good news: we’ve tweaked the mechanics a bit, so no more incidents like this should happen ✈️

p.s. you can check out the updated mechanics in the bot right now. give it a spin!

did you know, that…

planes is a multi-platform project ✈️

and the first social media you have to follow? X (ex-twitter).

really soon you’ll find exclusive content there to help you earn even more planes!

stay tuned 😎

the first mystery has begun…

it’s no coincidence we mentioned Twitter yesterday. right now, there’s something there that will give you extra planes ✈️

hint: look for a post with the same image.
