What's more is that the quality of UX manages to be mostly consistent across clients with entirely disparate codebases written in different languages with different UI toolkits.
That's awesome. You have your pick of a massive variety of clients… one of them bound to fit your device setup like a glove. No lowest-common-denominator one-size-fits-all compromises like is so common with cross platform software these days.
- fritigern 4y agoTelegram's Linux client is simply Amazing.
- benplumley 4y agoIt's one of the worst Linux desktop programs I use daily. It gets scaling a bit wrong so all the icons look blurry, scrolling in chats regularly breaks (scroll wheel just does nothing but is fine in all other programs), and the one time I tried to video call in it it crashed. Discord's client is much better.
- ubercow13 4y agoAre you using the Telegram-provided build instead of a distro build? Distro builds of it are often broken IME.
- fritigern 4y agoFlatpack and Snap versions both work ok. I'm using the distro (manjaro) build, which is also pretty good. No idea how good the AUR versions are.
- benplumley 4y agoI'm using the manjaro build, I'll try Telegram's own build, thanks.
- ako 4y agoFor what it's worth, Telegram's scaling on windows is also broken. Use it with one 100% and one 200% scaling monitor, on the HDPI everything is too small to read.
- fritigern 4y agoStrange. I'm on a HDPI screen (XFCE) and don't have any issues with Telegram.
