If there's one thing Telegram isn't good at, it's having a UX that respect its users. If that was the case, it would be possible to opt out of notifications from group chats and still receive notifications for private chats, but it's not. This forces one to juggle with multiple accounts if they want to both join public groups and also use it for regular chats.
They already put engagement over respect for their users, I don't have much confidence they won't ruin it even more with ads.

Uh, it's possible, and has always been? In the Android client at least, there's a group of big honking toggles under "notifications and sounds" that do just that.
- TheChaplain 6y agoHuh? I can mute groups very easily, and it has been possible for almost as long as they existed AFAIK. TG has in my opinion the best UI and functionality of all chat-apps available too.
- ohgodplsno 6y agoOn Android, each chat creates a different notification group that you can customize through the system settings. On iOS's half baked implementation of notifications, not sure.
