Telegram new mac app look wonderful!!

Full contextOriginal content · Reddit

As I last posted and trashed Telegram mac UI (compared to its iOS version), they updated their mac UI and it look way better than before and give sidebar a special touch that match with mac element. They also added swipe left and right gesture to this chat. Thank you Telegram Team!

Telegram UI never looked bad. And if I remember correctly, the trackpad gestures existed before

I remember it was only 1 side before, didn't recall if it was both side

It closes the gap nicely with the iOS version. It was missing that sidebar touch and gestures.

u/Spiritual_ShowOPReply

it does! I am really happy that they finally bridge the gap

where does the leftmost thinner bar (below the traffic lights) come from?

u/Spiritual_ShowOPReply

traffic light are inside the vertical thinner box- its new mac os dmg update- may later come in appstore

u/Spiritual_ShowOPReply

it was some old android phone, never delete or leave those channels

u/Spiritual_ShowOPReply

Thanks for the update, looks good indeed! I like the glassiness and would love to see more of it! Speaking of Telegram... For a long time I've been using the web version, as the Mac app never works for me with a VPN connection. Does anyone know if the new version finally fixes this?

u/i3aychikovReply

I dont know, never had problems with vpn. but thing I want to say - you can install Telegram Desktop on mac too! like on windows on linux, its the same. maybe it will fix your problem

It looks pretty nice; it's been a while since I last used Telegram

If only more people used Telegram where I live...! Such a shame, Telegram is really such a better option than WhatsApp is all ways

Now if they'd quit creating new chats every time a contact has "joined telegram" everything would be perfect.
