🆕 Last week brought us another big Telegram update that includes message effects, captions above photos, hashtag search, collapsible quotes, actions for phone numbers in messages and more.
💖 My favorite new addition is Message Effects — a feature you voted for in this channel. Press and hold on the “Send” button after typing a message to choose a colorful message effect. We added over 500 ❗️ message effects that you can attach to any message you send in 1-on-1 chats.
👉 Something even bigger is set to launch this week, so stay tuned!

Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number. Update March 8, 2022: EFF has clarified that Channels and Groups are not fully encrypted, end-to-end, updated our post to link to Telegram’s FAQ for Cloud and Secret chats, updated to clarify that auto-delete is available for group and channel admins, and added some additional links. WhatsApp, a rival messaging platform, introduced some measures to counter disinformation when Covid-19 was first sweeping the world. Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read."
