20 posts held, back to 6 March 2016 — 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 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 10 February 2022. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

If you will change your mind, cancel it at a…

Some person from our chat noticed that current value of Bitcoins on donation address has overreached 750$ TLDR: that's my own money I've mistakenly sent to myself. Long story: I'm using Bitcoin app with "receive" feature. It displays your receiving address. The address stays the same until you receive at least one transaction to it (but I didn't know that). So at April, 2020 I've mistakenly sent some Bitcoins to mys…

Multiple requests to relaunch the bot lead me to explain something. I stopped the bot a couple of weeks ago. I had been supporting the bot since 2015. From that time I spent huge amount of my time and money on it. The bot was deployed on commercial hosting service that cost me approximately a hundred dollars each year. The source code of the bot is available here: https://github.com/quasiyoke/RandTalkBot — you may fe…

The bot was stopped intentionally. Until I'll collect 750$ (0.12295 BTC) on a BTC address 3DdRrSs18cJZUtWs3rDZYbJD1dAh9DzTWK , I won't start it again. You're able to see the current amount of money there right here: https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/3DdRrSs18cJZUtWs3rDZYbJD1dAh9DzTWK — thank you for your donations. Each donation will be highly appreciated.

Our @RandTalkBot didn't work for a while because we've changed hosting provider. Thank you for being with us. Keep chatting! ✌

Today @RandTalkBot was updated. We've fixed a bug appeared since last Telegram platform update and added German translation. Vielen Dank, Jonas! 👏 Give us 5 stars to make Rand Talk more popular among people speaking on your languages: https://telegram.me/storebot?start=randtalkbot

Sometimes people you meet at Rand Talk are not of your type. It's very uncomfortable to recognize them again and again when you press /begin. Today the bot have stopped connecting you with the persons you talk recently (4 hours). 👍 Tell to your friends (especially females) about our wonderfully developing @RandTalkBot!

Another way to make using @RandTalkBot even cooler is to give it “Excellent” mark at the bots' rating. That will increase strangers' variety. 😏 Give 5 stars to our bot here: https://telegram.me/storebot?start=randtalkbot

Have you ever spent your bonuses on people who disconnect immediately? We have stopped this. 😜 Now your bonus will be spent only if both of you wrote something to the chat before ending it. Don't be shy to ask your questions and report bugs to @quasiyoke.
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @RandTalk. 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.

Shares as published. No per-option vote count is published by Telegram, so none is shown.
Percentages only — there are no per-option vote counts here, because Telegram publishes none.The public post preview gives each option’s share and a single voter total, and nothing else. Multiplying one by the other would produce a per-option tally that looks measured and is not: the shares are rounded to whole numbers before we ever see them. We print what was published and leave the column that does not exist empty.
The shares need not add up to 100.Rounding alone puts many polls at 99 or 101. A poll that allows more than one answer per voter runs well past 100 by design, and several here do. The bars are drawn against a fixed 100% track at each option’s own percentage rather than normalised to the total, so a poll that exceeds it shows that it does instead of being quietly rescaled.
Read from the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 6 March 2016 to 10 February 2022. Telegram labels each poll by kind — an anonymous poll, a quiz, a closed set of final results — and that label is reproduced rather than paraphrased.
