The concept of Newsfeed in Telegram

🗞 Appointment:
Many telegram users have been waiting for the newsfeed for a long time,
reading channels moving from one to another is not so convenient and you
need one place where you can read all the channels in a convenient
form.

Adding this feature will be revolutionary, as the telegram newsfeed will
be different from the newsfeeds in other social networks, as well as
attract a huge number of new users, people will spend more time in
telegram, create their blogs more actively.

Reading and sorting channels will become compact and convenient.
Telegram will become a full-fledged social network and media platform.

🎨 Creation:
In addition to the ability to create a channel or group, it will be possible to create a newsfeed.

When creating a newsfeed, you can configure which channels will be
visible in it, you can select all at once, some, all but some, only
public, etc.

you can only add channels to which you are subscribed.

the newsfeed is also given a name, description and avatar.

you can also set a link to the newsfeed or generate it.

You can create an unlimited number of newsfeeds.

When creating a folder, there will be a separate setting that allows you to make a folder with all your newsfeeds.

📰 How working:
After creation, your feed will appear in the menu, it looks like other
chats or channels, it can be pinned, added to a folder, added to an
archive, deleted.

the notification settings for the feed are the same as for other channels. You can't find the newsfeed by searching.

When you open the newsfeed, everything looks like a normal channel,
but you can't upload it there, posts from those channels that are added
to the newsfeed will appear in the newsfeed.

all reactions, views and comments made through the newsfeed are
displayed on the original channels, comments can be left only under
those posts where they are included.

Posts from private channels will be visible only if you are subscribed
to them, if you are not subscribed, then a message with a link to the
channel will be displayed instead of the post.

⚙️ Configuration:
The newsfeed can be configured after creation, change the avatar, name,
description, notifications, as well as choose a priority:

The newest posts from channels are published first, the most popular
posts are published first, posts from more popular channels are
published first and those channels that you watch more often are
published first.

you can also add more channels to the newsfeed or exclude channels from
the feed, but you can also "disable" the channel in the feed, then posts
from this channel will not be visible in the feed until you turn it on
again.

in the settings, you can also change the link, there will be unique links for the newsfeeds that can be freely distributed.

🌐 Distribution:
When clicking on the link to the newsfeed, the user will see the
newsfeed and will be able to subscribe to it, after which the newsfeed
will appear in his list of channels and chats, other users can also
customize the newsfeed for themselves, while you will see posts from
channels that are in the feed even if you are not subscribed to them.
The statistics of the newsfeeds installations will be visible only to
its creator, but it is impossible to view the users who installed the
newsfeeds.

This feature, among other things, will allow new users to find
interesting content faster and easier for themselves, to get used to
telegram.

⭐️ Themes and premium (optional):
You can add the ability, when creating or configuring a newsfeed, to set
a topic for it, as in personal chats, the possibility of creating these
topics is also desirable. the theme that the creator of the feed set by
default will initially stand when installed by other users, but it can
be changed.

Themes and other functions of the tapes (for example, creation and
customization) can be done for premium, but the installation and
distribution of tapes should be available to everyone without exceptions
