tg VS Telegram

Their Desktop app is written in Qt C++[1].

This one is made with Qt: https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop I remembered this one.

But having checked clients for other platforms they are not made with Qt. You can check them all here: https://telegram.org/apps

p.s. i am also considering using c++, to try writing an extension of the source that implements the feature in a certain way, could you advise on how complex would this been?

In secret chat, you can't take any screenshot which can't be happened if it's implemented on Desktop app. That's the reason Telegram hasn't implemented the feature on its desktop versions. But that notification thing should be considered I guess… Someone should open an issue regrading it on it's GitHub repo.

Also, if you want to go hardcore: https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram

Compare https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/commits/main with https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram/commits/master

Here's a good example https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram/blob/master/TMessagesProj/src/main/java/org/telegram/ui/ChatActivity.java

Forkgram have more features, but not a fork of Telegram-FOSS, is based on official source witch can contain some proprietary blobs

For a couple of updates already I've been noticing this behavior on my Android phone. Telegram support has been silent unsurprisingly, so I've considered opening an issue directly on github, but repo for android client doesn't allow this. I'm out of ideas how to bring attention to this, because I know other android users with the same issue so it's not user-specific

I see this huge C++ file and I raise you a Java file that's so enormous github refuses to render it: https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram/blob/master/TMessagesProj/...

— Do not use checkboxes and radio buttons in cells. Due to the complex xml structure and internal layers coloring, simple initialization of the checkbox on old phones took a very long time. As a solution, either use the checkbox images (but then they will be without animation), or use a custom checkbox, as for example telegram uses https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram/blob/master/TMessagesProj/src/main/java/org/telegram/ui/Components/CheckBoxSquare.java Made by analogy on kotlin: https://github.com/ivan200/buyer/blob/master/app/src/main/java/app/simple/buyer/util/views/CheckBoxSquare.kt
