20 posts held, back to 2 August 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 3 of 20 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.

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 3 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 5reactions 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 2 August 2026 to 7 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.
Sending a simple letter in Switzerland is about to get more expensive. From 2027, a standard priority letter will cost CHF 1.40 instead of CHF 1.20, while economy mail will rise from CHF 1 to CHF 1.10. Parcel prices, however, will stay frozen through 2029. In the digital age, putting something in an envelope is slowly becoming the premium option.
Six tiny cheetahs have made their public debut at Basel Zoo. The four males and two females, born on June 5 to first-time mother Malaika, are healthy and can now be seen exploring their enclosure. The birth is especially welcome because fewer than 7,000 adult cheetahs are estimated to remain in the wild, making zoo breeding programs an important genetic safety net. Six new spotted faces may be small news for Basel - …
Switzerland’s famously solid pension system is losing something important: public confidence. Only about one in four Swiss residents believe the state pension will remain secure in 20 years, while expected retirement income for some workers has fallen 16% since 2002, largely because of lower occupational pension payouts. A worker earning CHF 100,000 can now expect retirement income equal to roughly 51% of their final…
Switzerland's severe drought is now forcing major summer events off the calendar. Organizers have canceled the Raina Rock open-air festival in Basel-Landschaft, saying extreme fire risk makes it unsafe to hold the event, with strict restrictions banning open flames, grills and even parking on dry grass at the venue. The festival, scheduled for August 14–15, has been postponed until next year, and ticket holders will …
Drivers using one of Europe's busiest road tunnels will need to plan for overnight detours this month. Switzerland's Gotthard Road Tunnel will close for 12 nights between August 10 and August 27, from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., Monday through Thursday, while engineers carry out safety work on the tunnel's structure. The repairs follow a 2023 incident in which a crack formed near the northern portal and pieces of concre…
A summer hike turned dangerous after an encounter with livestock guardian dogs in the Swiss Alps. Authorities in the canton of Graubünden are investigating an incident in which two German hikers, aged 21 and 22, came across guard dogs protecting a herd, with one tourist falling about 10 meters down a slope during the encounter. Officials say conflicts between hikers and livestock protection dogs have increased as mor…
Switzerland's summer heat is sending people uphill in record numbers. Passenger traffic on the country's mountain railways has climbed 7% compared with last year and 29% above the five-year average, as locals and visitors escape soaring temperatures for cooler alpine destinations. While some regions saw declines due to construction and maintenance work, operators say stronger demand from Swiss residents, German-speak…
Switzerland's drought is forcing farmers to find new ways to feed their livestock. Farming associations in Zurich and Schaffhausen have launched an online marketplace where growers can sell animal feed to farms facing shortages after dry weather left many pastures without enough grass. The platform is designed to connect farmers directly as many have already started using winter hay earlier than planned, with more fe…
Travel on Switzerland's public transport will become more expensive this December, but not as much as first expected. After talks with the country's price regulator, the cost of the popular unlimited GA travel pass was reduced from the originally proposed increase, with the second-class pass now set to cost 4,095 Swiss francs instead of 4,195 francs. While some fares will still rise to reflect inflation and higher op…

Switzerland's plum season has arrived early, and growers are expecting one of the best harvests in years. Warm, sunny weather has brought the harvest forward by about a week, with producers forecasting around 3,000 tonnes of high-quality plums packed with natural sweetness and balanced flavor. The harvest is expected to continue into early September, giving consumers plenty of fresh fruit for eating, baking and prese…
Cheap borrowing is continuing to fuel Switzerland's housing market, with home prices rising even as interest rates remain at zero. Analysts say the low-rate environment has boosted demand for residential property, pushing prices higher across the first half of 2026 as buyers take advantage of favourable financing conditions. With borrowing costs expected to stay low, pressure on the housing market is likely to contin…
A destructive invasive beetle is spreading into new parts of Switzerland, triggering immediate containment measures. Japanese beetles have now been confirmed in Bern and Köniz, prompting restrictions on moving garden waste, compost and soil across 21 municipalities as authorities work to stop the pest from spreading. From mid-August, officials will also use beneficial nematodes to target the beetle's larvae, while fu…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @switzerland. 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.
