Projektgeschichte

Telegram launched in August 2013. An initially unofficial PC client appeared in early 2014 and later became the official Telegram Desktop application. Telegram Desktop reached version 1.0 in January 2017 with a redesigned interface and custom themes.

The client has continued as the service's principal cross-platform desktop application, adding features such as cloud drafts, media and document synchronization, chat export, calls, themes, and other capabilities shared with the Telegram platform.

Adoptionsgeschichte

Telegram Desktop grew into Telegram's official cross-platform desktop client for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its cloud synchronization lets users move between mobile and desktop clients, while official binaries, operating-system stores, Linux packages, and package managers provide multiple distribution paths.

Telegram reports more than one billion active users for the wider service. That figure describes Telegram overall rather than the desktop client alone.

Wie es verwendet wird

Sign in with a Telegram account and verification code to synchronize ordinary cloud chats, documents, photos, videos, and drafts across devices.

Use the client for messaging, groups, channels, calls, file exchange, and desktop-oriented operations such as chat-data export.

Secret Chats are device-specific and are not synchronized into Telegram Desktop.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Telegram Desktop is a substantial GPLv3 C++/Qt desktop application built on the public Telegram API and MTProto protocol. It is important to packaging communities because it spans Windows, macOS, and Linux, has both upstream and store-specific distributions, and maintains a large native build and dependency system.
