20 posts held, back to 10 July 2026 — 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.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate. It is computed over the 1 of 9 measured posts that carry a reaction reading, and over those same posts' views.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
2 reactions across 2 posts, in 2 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 50.0% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| 👍 | 1 | 50.0% | |
| 🔥 | 1 | 50.0% |
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 2 of the 20 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 2reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 10 July 2026 to 6 August 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.
AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions have both evolved, but the main lesson from our pricing comparison remains relevant in 2026: serverless costs depend heavily on the shape of your workload. Google’s second-generation Cloud Functions are now called Cloud Run functions and follow the Cloud Run pricing model. AWS Lambda continues to bill according to requests, execution duration and allocated resources. Billing gr…

The more capable AI becomes, the easier it is to trust it too much. The current GPT-5 generation is better at understanding intent, reasoning across large amounts of context and using external tools. Its answers can be detailed, polished and highly convincing. But a convincing answer is not automatically a correct one, and an autonomous workflow is not automatically an appropriate one. AI literacy in 2026 therefore…

Should you define every GKE resource yourself or use a Terraform module? Building a basic cluster from individual resources is a good way to understand what Terraform is actually creating. A maintained module becomes useful once you need repeatable configurations, multiple environments and more advanced GKE features without duplicating large amounts of code. This article demonstrates both approaches, including VPC-…

“We only use ChatGPT as a copilot, so the EU AI Act does not really apply to us.” That is an understandable assumption, but it is incorrect. Article 4’s AI literacy requirement applies to organisations whose employees use tools such as ChatGPT for professional purposes, including relatively ordinary tasks such as drafting marketing copy or translating text. A human reviewing the answer does not remove the requireme…

A request passing through a CDN can arrive at your backend with much more context than it had when it left the user’s browser. Depending on the provider and configuration, that context can include an approximate country, region, city, timezone, postal code and coordinates. Cloudflare and Amazon CloudFront can generate this information from the visitor’s IP address and forward it as HTTP headers. This is fast, inexp…

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @mkdev_me. 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.
