Feed or Stream with posts from Subscribed Channels
Jim Gomes 🪵🐉, Dec 23, 2020 at 14:43, edited
OpenSuggestionGeneral

Show posts from channels you're subsribed to in a single view, one post after another – without the need to open each channel seprately to see what's new. Like Twitter and other feed-based social networks.

  • The interface could look like a group in which your channels are members.
  • Scrolling by posts in the feed marks them as read in the individual Channels.
  • Could have options to choose which channels will be shown in the feed.

Alternative Options

As of August 2021, you can use the Jump to Next interface to move between unread messages in your channels without going back to the chats list.

This provides a similar experience to social media "feeds", while allowing each message to be displayed within its proper context.

If you have organized your chat list with Folders or Archived Chats, the app will follow the structure you have set up: channels in the current folder, then within each folder, then those left in All Chats and the Archive.

A feed would be another front for monetization, a very good and relevant idea.

Excellent idea!
It already exists in the custom Android client - Graph Messenger (Telegraph), but having it in all of the platforms as an actual chat option (such as "saved messages") can be awesome!

That's not going to happen, Telegram is a messenger, not a social network! Durov promised publicly

Simple, add a toggle option to groups; "Show as single feed" to get a direct, unified feed of all channels, groups and contacts posts when opening a folder. All management would be done in the folder management. To reply to displayed posts, the user replies to it similar to Channel commenting, but now for all types of posts-, channels, groups and contacts!

Having to manually jump from one channel to the next is slow when there's 20+ unread channels per hour.

Custom single feeds are my #1 wish for telegram. 👍

That's a great suggestion for how to manage what is included in the stream/feed. Excellent use of the folder system, and offers greater functionality because it would include all types of posts.
Thanks for the idea, Robert! This would be my preferred way to manage the feed inclusion.

I don't think this could be considered fixed, because the main point is sorting posts by time from different channels.
