5 measurements spanning 7 days, net -17. Dots are measurements; the straight line between them is drawn to join them, not to claim we know the path taken in between — snapshots are recorded only when a count changes, so gaps mean “no change observed”, never “interpolated”. The vertical axis spans 1,347–1,370 and does not start at zero.

Engagement
18 posts held, back to 12 September 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 18 posts for this entry, the most recent from 10 May 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Measured directly from 2 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Reaction mix
135 reactions across 16 posts, in 9 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 64.4% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 16 of the 18 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 135reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 18 most recent posts we hold, published 12 September 2025 to 10 May 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

A paid reaction is a reader spending Telegram Stars — bought with money — on a post by @CarlosLugonesBlog. Telegram publishes the count on the public post preview alongside ordinary reactions, and this register reads it there. It is the only figure on this site that measures money moving rather than attention.
Stars are not reactions, and the two are never added. They are rendered in the same strip on Telegram and counted in the same shape, but one is a tap and the other is a purchase. The reaction totals and the engagement rate elsewhere on this page exclude every figure in this section, and no rate here is computed against a reaction count.
This is not revenue, and we publish no currency figure. What a Star costs a reader and what it pays a channel are different numbers, Telegram takes a share we cannot observe, and the terms have changed. Converting a Star count into money would be an estimate dressed as a measurement, so the count is where we stop.
Counted over the 18 most recent posts we hold for this entry, published 12 September 2025 to 10 May 2026. Star counts above 1,000 reach us in Telegram’s short form and carry the same three-significant-figure rounding as everything else on this page.
Just built something for people who enjoy flight simulation.
Most of the time when I opened Microsoft Flight Simulator, the hardest part wasn't flying. It was deciding where to fly.
So I started building Simmers.app:
• Curated routes
• Flight logging
• Hangar
• Pilot profiles
Honestly, I built it mainly for myself at first, but now I'm curious to see if other people into flight sims would find it useful too.

April is here already, incredible. Slowly getting back to creative mode.
What happened during these months:
• Closed the VPN. Had no other choice.
• Released another version of Private Chat. I have ideas to continue that as a decentralized communication protocol, nowadays very necessary. Even if nobody uses it, it's a great learning experience.
• Streamed via Youtube and Twitch, mostly gaming with my friends, and m…
A Personal Note
This year has been incredibly difficult for me. I hope yours was better, and that you can enjoy a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. 🎄
I lost three important family members, was betrayed by a partner I trusted as a friend, and now my beloved VPN project is facing a serious crisis.
These challenges have taken a heavy toll on my health, and I'm struggling to keep up with everything.
Here is t…
More and more scammers around:
Automated bots finding my account, IDK how...
They come with curated profiles, looking real, but then drop random Spanish words in the middle of an English message. It just doesn't match.
I think it's time to activate the "Pay with Stars to message" option here. Getting way too many messages like this lately.
Doubt everythng, don't trust random profiles like this.
Be careful with scammers 👀
1. They contact you without any group in common.
2. Their profile shows they changed name and photo recently.
3. Offering unrealistic terms: $10k to fix a Python script.
4. Sending the file without even the potential victim accepting to take the job.
5. File contains a trojan to scan your computer, to steal sensitive files, passwords, credentials, wallets, etc.
Now the scams are tryin…
Multi-Hop applied to overcome censorship.
Russia blocking outgoing connections to Ukraine. Solution: adding an additional hop.
I see other VPNs offering this for additional privacy. Seriously considering to add your own and customized routes for a more anonymous traffic.

Here's my daily thought: How can I serve my users better? How can I make their lives easier?
That's the driving force behind what I build.
Perfection is impossible, but striving to get closer is always allowed.
Chat Control: Why We Must Stop It
The European Union is trying to push a law called "Chat Control". If passed, it would force every messaging app to scan your private messages, even if they're encrypted. It also includes age verification rules that could kill online anonymity.
This is mass surveillance. It breaks end-to-end encryption, it puts everyone under suspicion, and it sets a dangerous precedent. Once you no…

Showing the 12 most recent of 18 posts we hold for @CarlosLugonesBlog. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Stars beside a post are paid reactions — Telegram Stars, bought with money and spent on that post. They are a different unit from reactions and are never added to them, here or anywhere else on this page.
Citation-graph rank
Citation-graph rank — 489,528 of 1,481,217entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channel’s name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture. The top 100 by this measure, or how it is computed.
Mentions
Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
