If you moved a large (>25 people) direct cast group chat to Telegram recently, what was the reason?

cc @proxystudio.eth @samuellhuber.eth @six (for /higher) @saxenasaheb assume it mostly has to do with having channels / categories within telegram for easier coordination / organization but don't want to speak on their behalf

what ted said, basically. people were overwhelmed by pace of convo, losing track of important info. Moved to telegram for organization purposes (topics, pins, threaded replies + quotes, bot integrations) but have stayed there because thats where the devs and teams I collaborate with daily their time. Chat folders save my sanity when moving between 30+ active chats when Proxy community chat one day returns to WC (my preference), will still be hard for me to leave Telegram behind unless majority of devs & partners all migrated as well

FBI doesn’t have channels but instead several smaller sub groups and chats specific to that context. (Rookies, FBI core group, Brokers, Goats) Channels UX on TG is sub optimal imo and leads to decreased engagement and conversation. We moved to TG because warpcast chat was slow (load times), emoji reactions and gif capability was a core factor in community engagement (not present at that time, sub optimal now).

Yeah channels are the biggest reason, helps organize conversation based on threads TG also feels pretty lightweight and snappy to me now

Reason it’s a TG not a DC is I held a user vote and users voted 4x more for TG then Warpcast, that’s all From using: TG loading chats and receiving messages seems very fast. Warpcast lags heavy I actively close the app and go back in to see new messages fast :( Also TG search allows me to go back how far I want and doesn’t require me to scroll up to infinity just to gain the ability to perform search Otherwise I couldn’t care less, I’d love WC so no second app (TG) but snappiness and quick feel just makes me appreciate TG Also on Waprcast if a pinned message is already older you can’t navigate to it same as with search or replies Can’t jump up if too old (could be just couple hours) Add in that I see mentions and reactions but can’t jump to the message also notification that someone reacted to a message of someone else doesn’t let me jump to that so I never know what they did

I dislike the channels of TG, makes me loose track of conversations and doesn’t fit my mental model of everything I see on the chat page being just a chat that’s one click away
