According to PANews, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov marked the 11th anniversary of the messaging platform by sharing a personal message on his channel. Reflecting on a promise he made at the age of 11 in 1995 to become smarter, stronger, and freer every day, Durov extended this commitment to Telegram. He emphasized that the platform aims to become smarter by offering more features, stronger by gaining more popularity among users, and freer by becoming more independent and self-sufficient. He concluded his message by wishing Telegram a happy birthday.
In addition to the anniversary celebration, Durov announced the introduction of new features, following a major update just two weeks ago. These updates include a new type of channel and three new ways to support content creators. The new features are part of Telegram's ongoing efforts to enhance user experience and provide more tools for its community.
