Please a linux client... I'm missing it more than a mobile app.
It would be a good idea for Proton to write Drive using something similar to Telegram's https://github.com/tdlib/td. That way they could write their official clients more easily, and third party clients could be created with a lot of the work done.

telega.el - GNU Emacs telegram client
The problem there is mostly with how they're doing releases for tdlib: They create proper releases for major versions (like 1.7.0, 1.8.0), and then nothing for all for point releases (like 1.7.1), not even git tags - they're seeing those releases as development releases. They do a lot of (breaking) changes and new features between releases - so while distributions might want to stick with proper releases others might want to follow git (and the author is following git with his development branch).

What libraries from other languages do you wish were ported over into go?
tdlib, but it's huge

[Feature Request] Limit/disable/remove option to delete chats on both ends
I think taking advantage of https://github.com/tdlib/td (telegrams library) to build some backup mechanism around it would be the best way forward.

Send notification when a Telegram message is received. Which libraries are needed ?
Hmm I had some experience with Telegram bots. So if the case is that you just need the notification about new message to the stdout of the command line, I would suggest Telethon library. It acts as usual client, therefore it's not a bot and you don't have to register it at BotFather. Yet you'll have to create an application for https://my.telegram.org/apps and get credentials from there. Also check out unofficial CLI tool: https://github.com/vysheng/tg/

Is there a way to disable HW acceleration for QT apps?
Fair enough, that seems to be the best course of action. From the Telegram website they list this unofficial CLI app, guaranteed this one won't take any GPU resources.

Assigned value to a variable not working as expected in script
Ok this sure beats the living daylight out of my script with sed and other useless stuff. It did print out the output I needed in the subshell. I got a FAIL: 38: can not parse arg #1 from Telegram-Cli but this seems to be a known bug, besides the scope of my bash script. Thank you.

[Feature Request] Limit/disable/remove option to delete chats on both ends
I tried a couple of those projects (to even somehow script them to make it automatic/daily) but no use. There is https://github.com/vysheng/tg which I was able to use to connect to telegram but trying to use https://github.com/tvdstaaij/telegram-history-dump/ failed with exception (mostly because of Ruby).
