Multi-Level Groups with Segmented Access
Idea:
Enhance Telegram group functionality by introducing a structured approach that allows multiple topics within a single group, similar to Discord servers. This feature will enable users to create one overarching group with multiple subtopics and configure access to each topic for specific participants. This approach is especially useful for work teams, study groups, and interest-based communities.
Feature Description:
Multi-Level Groups
Main Group: A central space for all group members to communicate and discuss general topics.Subgroups (Topics): Within the main group, users can create separate topics, functioning as subgroups with their own chat and settings.
Segmented Access
Flexible Access Settings: Admins can configure access for each topic individually. For example:
Topic 1 is accessible to all group members.Topic 2 is restricted to selected users.Guest Access: Ability to invite external participants to specific topics without exposing other discussions.
Structural Management
Topic Hierarchy: Topics can be arranged by priority, name, or chronology.Thematic Notifications: Users receive notifications only for the topics they are part of, avoiding information overload.Pinned Topics: Admins can pin important topics at the top of the group for quick access.
Advanced Moderation Tools
Roles and Permissions:
Group Admin: Manages the entire group and all topics.Topic Moderators: Manage specific topics only.Activity Logs: Separate logs for each topic to track who added or changed what.
Integration with Existing Telegram Features
