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 477–478 and does not start at zero.

Engagement

16 posts held, back to 20 April 2026the 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 16 posts for this entry, the most recent from 9 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Reaction mix

257 reactions across 14 posts, in 11 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 31.9% 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 15 of the 16 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 257reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.

Measured over the 16 most recent posts we hold, published 20 April 2026 to 9 July 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 @aleks_shamis. 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 16 most recent posts we hold for this entry, published 20 April 2026 to 9 July 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.

I realized that it is basically me and Carlson Tucker with English channels on Telegram. I did not watch the video, but a state-sponsored death cult disguised as healthcare sounds right. If you read any other English Telegram channels, drop the links in the comments.

AI is creating a boom of unconscious incompetence. There are two types of incompetencies. Conscious incompetence - when one is aware of their shortcomings and blind spots. This is the good one. Unconscious incompetence - when one is not aware of not only of what they don’t know but even that there are things that they don’t know in the work they are doing. I believe AI is creating a boom of unconscious incompetence

This is the question that we ask the founders on every pitch call. And this is where most stumble. In reality, we expect to find the answers in the deck even before the call, but rarely do. When founders pitch, they tend to spend most of the time on describing things that are table stakes, things that everybody knows, things that don't create moats and are not strategic. They tell us how x, y, z is a big problem, wh

These are photos and corresponding AI characters of myself at different ages. I've been out of Instagram/Facebook for quiet some time. Planning a comeback with something exciting. I think there is a unique opportunity in time for myself and everyone, really. Will share more as it happens. https://www.instagram.com/p/DZhSM_rjB_O/?img_index=3&igsh=MWNtNGc4MmN3NmNocA%3D%3D very #silly_thoughts

As I was meeting the fifth delivery yesterday, I was thinking what this Western overconsumption reminds me of. My mind started estimating: how many deliveries we had since we moved into our house two years ago, how often we throw things out, where does all this crap go to. It all reminded me of a real life tetris. Sometimes the lines align and you throw some stuff out. But eventually you lose anyway, unless you have

Elon Musk is a genius at naming companies. Tesla and Neuralink. Great names. The Boring Company - genius. Doge - hilarious. SpaceX hits different after the merger of his "Space" business and X.com. As if he knew. And then MacroHard. Mic drop. That's Elon's new company taking on Microsoft. Not a coincidence. Humor, naming, sarcasm are traits of clear, sharp thinking.

For over two years, I've eaten mostly beef and eggs. Sometimes I eat cheese, other types of meat and fish. But most of the time, it is just beef. In fact, I eat at least one ribeye steak almost every day. I do not eat any vegetables, fruits or grains. Zero fiber. A few grams of carbs from milk with coffee. This lifestyle is called carnivore. I stumbled on this by accident. Shawn Baker - the guy who coined the term

No matter how easy it becomes to build a perfect app, 99% of people will never do it, for the same reasons most people don't bake their own bread or make sushi at home. It means that if you are a builder, you can solve a niche problem in a very specific way and compete for 99% of your audience. Let's say you build an app and sell it for $5/month. Given how easy it is to build an app, at just 1,000 active users you c

Showing the 12 most recent of 16 posts we hold for @aleks_shamis. 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.

Shares as published, totalling 99%. 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 16 most recent posts we hold, published 20 April 2026 to 9 July 2026. 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.

Citation-graph rank

Citation-graph rank — 736,862 of 1,481,306entries 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.

Forward network

Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.

Republishes

Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.

Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
