Last week, we shared with you an article by our founder about how the relocation game in tech has changed. That piece ended up on the front page of Hacker News and got 200K+ views on Reddit. And it naturally led to the next question: If today’s relocation market works differently, how should you actually search for a job abroad? That’s probably the question Andrew received most often after publishing the article.…

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.

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.

When it comes to relocating abroad for work, most people immediately think of employer-sponsored visas. But there’s another, often overlooked route: talent visas. One of the biggest differences from a traditional work visa is that a talent visa often doesn’t require you to have a job offer. And unlike many digital nomad visas, eligibility is usually based on your professional achievements rather than meeting an o…
“Why do you want to relocate?” It’s one of the most common interview questions international job seekers get, and one where your answer can quietly hurt your chances of moving forward. Many candidates answer it by talking almost exclusively about wanting to move abroad, seeking a better quality of life, higher salaries, and the like. Here’s the problem: when that’s your entire answer, you unintentionally shift the…

Just published an updated guide to digital nomad visas available in 2026. Today, more than 50 countries offer some form of digital nomad visa, and new programs keep appearing. Some require relatively modest income, while others have thresholds that put them out of reach for many people. Some are designed for a short stay, while others can lead to long-term residence. We originally published a similar guide in 2025…
Do cover letters still matter in 2026? Our answer: Yes, but only if you write them well. Otherwise, it's a waste of time. To give you an example, one of the subscribers to our Substack newsletter, The Global Move, recently wrote a cover letter that opened the door for him at a Berlin-based tech company while applying from abroad. He kindly gave us permission to share that cover letter publicly, so we could break …
Showing the 12 most recent of 21 posts we hold for @relocateme. 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.

The reverse of the list above, and a different kind of signal. This does not require this channel to have ever been asked about directly — each row below is a channel we DID ask Telegram about, whose Telegram-generated list happened to include this one. A channel can appear here with an empty list above it, because being named by someone else’s query is independent of having been queried itself.
