Telegram messenger,the closest and fiercely competitive rival to WhatsApp have decided to up their game again by adding a more robust group feature.

Ever since it's inception in 2013,it has witnessed incredible growth.It stands out as the "best" messenger and offers modern, sophisticated and Superior technology in messaging.Many of which include the ability to edit previously sent messages,unsend messages,large file sharing capabilities (1.5GB per file), unlimited cloud storage for it's users, artificial intelligence (bots),20k group size limit amongst others.

The group size limit was formerly 10k,but now it has been doubled.I think this is a welcome news to those who are still creating multiple WhatsApp groups that can only accommodate 256 members.

Finally,it has also added a feature that makes you see your non-telegram contacts and the number of contacts they have that are on telegram.

It's great for information dissemination but following posts from a group with 20k members? Clears throat.
Telegram is the perfect chat app though.

You can mute the group to avoid too much notifications,however you will be alerted when someone quotes you

Not even notification, I'd be tempted to skim through which is something that's gonna take my time. imagine reading messages from five thousand active members
