Telegram shipped a major update: a full rich-text editor for blogs and long posts — with tables, inline media, headings, quotes, AI-generated text and 32,000-character messages.

New Communities let users bundle channels, groups and bots together and join them without invite links, while groups gain private, ephemeral bot replies. It also revamps GIF search across a library of 350 million GIFs, a move that pushes Telegram further as an all-in-one publishing and messaging app.
