    @DonMuzito @telegram If you think it's a mistake, talk to @ SpamBot on Telegram — it will be able to give you more information about the restrictions placed on your account and help you appeal them. Your appeal will be reviewed by a supervisor and the decision reversed, if applicable.

    Developing a chat app was all fun and games when I was all gung ho for mimicing telegram's featureset but now all I get to do is fix vulnerabilities and learn how little I know about javascript. I may abandon anigma development until it piques my interest once more.

    @mickreade Looks like a rug to me. Server down telegram muted.

  • pee_zombie 👁️ autosurveillant 👁️ (@pee_zombie) reported

    where is my open emojiset protocol? why can I not choose my own set of expressive affordances? Discord servers with custom reacts are a great prototype of this mode, as are Telegram stickers and Snapchat Bitmoji; the problem space is ripe with opportunity for new solutions

    @nunyaabizznesss @JonnyBoomer60 Tied to some Q drops lol He’s having fun and playing them hard. I was upset too, until I got on Telegram and saw it broken down. I know there’s a lot of people that have backed off from him for this, but that just made me realize how much bigger this is than him or us…!

  • heyadarsha Adarsh (@heyadarsha) reported

    @zt68534044 @telegram This is a temporary security measure that is activated when a user tries to login multiple times in a short period. I'd suggest you to wait for a full 24 hours for the lockout to clear. Neither any of your information will be lost nor you'll have to sign-up again. It's normal.

  • AngelaA007eth Angela Atkinson (@AngelaA007eth) reported

    The Telegram messenger team introduced the Passport authorization service.

  • heyadarsha Adarsh (@heyadarsha) reported

    @tonkerthomas @telegram Tap 'help' on the ban label and Telegram will automatically generate an email to be sent to the recovery team. You can also add your perspective on the ban. The moderators will review the appeal and reinstate the account, if applicable.

    @SibiThomasM @telegram This usually happens when a user tries to login multiple times within a short period. It's a temporary security measure and I'd suggest you to wait for a full 24 hours for the lockout to clear. Were you having troubles receiving login codes earlier?

    @J_J_1234_ @EiamCoyle Sorry to hear that, Yeah Fakebook are massively censored, I’ve been using Telegram for 3 years, that’s where you get real information flows from various channels, no censorship, Twitter got better and reinstated my account, but Fakebook should be taken down.

    I want to make a Fiverr acc to sell scripting help/scripts but I'm way too lazy to give it tax info. lmao any way DM my Discord/Telegram for scripting help.

  • heyadarsha Adarsh (@heyadarsha) reported

    @BrianRwothomio4 @telegram I'm afraid but to login on PC, you'll first need to be logged in elsewhere as the login code will be sent via Telegram and not via SMS. I'd suggest you to first login on a mobile device and then try to login on a PC for which the code will come via Telegram app on other device.
