I’ve just tried to sign up from Firefox 122 and it worked. No captcha or other kinds of anti-bot puzzle to solve

Camera: GrapheneOS’s camera app. Have been my camera of choice ever since I’ve discovered it. Never had an issue, offers all the basic features you would expect from a camera

Meta: just making sure that anyone that reads this comment is aware of the existence of Obtainium!

Obtainium allows you to install and update Apps directly from their releases pages, and receive notifications when new releases are made available.

yes, https://www.telegram.org/apps lists both, but if you open web.telegram.org, you will be automatically redirected to one of the two apps without being given the choice. The differences are not listed because the two apps are supposed to offer more or less the same features, and anyway nobody’s keeping track of them. As far as I know, also, the two developers are given great freedom in deciding which secondary features to implement (these webapps are not yet mature to actually replace the desktop client) so this makes keeping track of the differences a little more difficult.

You are basically not supposed to chose, choice is for those who are actively following the development of the two apps, apparently 🤷

If you want to get an idea of which client to pick, have a look at their telegram channels, they publish nice changelogs:

(also notice at the differences in the username and title format lol)

Yes, they are two different apps actively developed by two different people (A source code, K source code). They are the two winners of a contest Telegram held a few years ago, but they haven’t’ decided which one will be the default/standard webapp yet, so you can use both. I think web.telegram.org still picks a random one for you the first time you access it

I assume that by “channel” you mean “group”

On any platform, you can use the lens icon to search for messages. Once you tap/click on it, an user silhouette 👤 icon will appear. It allows to filter messages from a specific user, yourself included

If by “channel” you mean “channel”, then there’s no way to know which of the posts in the channel were sent by yourself, since they all appear as they were sent by the channel

If you want to see a list of all messages you’ve sent across all chats, then there’s no way to do that unless you script something using the users API

Locking this thread as it lost any usefulness and it’s getting popular among edgelord kids
