Hello fellow pirates! I’m tired of having all the telegram premium ads and antifeatures in the client and I’m looking for a client that removed them even if it’s against the TOS. Any tips? I’d rather use an actual open source fork than a cracked version of the original

I’m looking for both Android and Desktop (Linux)

What I want is to remove the hateful ads in the channels and the “buy premium to unlock these emojis”, and also to be able to arrange the folders in whatever order I like, without being forced to keep the “All messages” as first

thanks in advance!

    You don’t get banned for using a fork.

    Telegram API is open, you can use any client you want, even CURL

      Unless they ban all the users using a specific client

        Um using for years, Telegram-FOSS, Nekogram, Forkgram, um both phone and desktop, never get any warning.

        If anyone got banned, probably violation of TOS

        Also the clients are opensource and available on GitHub
