Practical guide

Keep channel posts readable

Telegram text messages can be up to 4,096 characters, enough for a full announcement. If a post has media, the caption limit is lower, so check the shorter number when you attach an image.

Break long posts into short paragraphs so they read well in a channel feed, and use the counter to make sure formatting markup does not push you over.
