Telegram book bots in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Create an account on Z-Library (beware of fake sites), in there you'll find instructions of how to create your own bot. This way the bot will only be accessible to you and won't trigger the CR restrictions.

Telegram Web A might be your next best solution. Though not a native app. https://web.telegram.org/a/

Why is the distance in miles a whole number while the distance in metric is not?

This time I'm not convinced. I see this as a ploy to quarantine apps they dont like but are legitimate e.g "Yet another call blocker"

"A bigger change than the upgrade of the memory type is the fact that the memory is no longer partially soldered: E14 G6 and E16 G1 have two SO-DIMM slots now for up to 64 GB of completely upgradeable memory."

This is awesome stuff. I like the direction Proton is taking of slowly adding services. I hope they get to build a web browser sooner. Hopefully not based on Chromium but Firefox (Gecko).

How is WhatsApp pushing new features so quickly? Did they poach a Telegram developer? (lemmy.ml)
 

I've been an avid Telegram user for quite some time now and I've noticed something interesting lately. Whatsapp, which has historically lagged behind Telegram in terms of features, seems to be rolling out new updates at a faster pace. It almost feels like they hired a developer from Telegram.

It's hard to ignore some of the recent additions to Whatsapp that Telegram has had for ages. Examples are

- Multiple device support: Not quite the way it's implemented in TG but close.

- Channels

- Block calls from non-contacts

While it's possible that WA dev team has stepped up their game and Meta(Facebook) is known for blatantly copying features, I can't help but wonder if there's something more going on behind the scenes.
