Is it just me or does order of $1 per user sound like a lot?
- Jaxkr 6y ago$1 per user/year sounds about right. I use Telegram more than any other chat app. People send lots of media (and even large files) and Telegram archives them forever. One group Telegram I’m in is 6 years old and has 500+ VIDEOS (and 10,000s of images) permanently archived in it. I’d estimate I cost over $10/yr to telegram.
