Animated stickers take a lot of space
As I've read on the Telegram FQA site, stickers are supposed to take a really small amount of space and move fluidly. I'm not sure whether it's the update, my phone/telegram settings or something else, but when I go to Data and Storage section and open up the "clear cache" I see 'animated stickers' take 800 MB + of cache and space on my SD card (this size accumulates over 1 day after clearing cache). I have 3 sets of stickers added so I can access them quickly. On top of that, my stickers always take such a long time to load and often lag.
Any ideas? For the lagginess, is it just my phones (Samsung galaxy J7, specs: 3 GB / 16 GB ) , poor processor and lack of space? For the sticker size, is this tipical/normal?
Thanks
Steps to reproduce
Deletecache in telegram settings
Open up chat and preview stickers
In 'storage and data' section in telegram settings, under cache - animated stickers take up 900 MB + after a day of using telegram (p.s. I have 3 sets of stickers saved
Device info

I got the same problem, I've remove all animated stickers but my storage usage is keep getting bigger and bigger by time without any acknowledge for a week now.
Not sure because I've just cleared the database recently. I'll let you know in a couple of days. I have another problem now... The app itself is taking more and more space (mostly because of data I think - please refer to the included picture) - even though I've cleared the cache inside the app itself, so it shouldn't be from the data from inside the chats - should I make a report about this, or is this normal for telegram ( I remember it used to take virtually no space when checking the app stats)
This is not normal for any app. Especially telegram. Idk why devs aren't optimising the app properly. Telegram most stuff should be in cache. What's there in user data?! Jeez. They put reactions in cache which should be in app data.
