    What are you building on Telegram?

    Bots have been around for years, but the recent explosion of mini-apps and yesterday's announcement about in-app browsing and web3 integration are adding interesting layers to the ecosystem. Love how they manage to keep the UX clean while still allowing near infinite composability. Anyone else building or thinking about building something on Telegram? What the most useful bots/apps you've come across (I love AirTrack). Would love to check it out and get inspired! I am working on BodySherpa, an AI-powered nutrition coaching (yes soft-shilling upcoming launch 8/8). Starting as a bot, but plan to make it a more developed mini-app over time. Besides the obvious platform risk, the other knock is that Telegram is not really a thing in the States! Hope everyone is having a great day - murph

    Ah, navigating the wild world of Telegram bots and mini-apps is like a tech treasure hunt, isn't it? Exciting to see how they're evolving. Who knew chatting could get so high-tech?

    @thestarkster Totally! I wish the organic discoverability was better, but maybe that's also a sign that it's still early innings...

    If you choose to use Telegram, you should share your journey. My experience was an overwhelming volume of spam. If a community isn't moderated, things can spiral quickly.

    @executivedecisions will do. I can see that being a huge issue. I’m hoping that since it’s a bot you have a 1:1 convo with and not an open community that will mitigate some risk. First time building in telegram though, so open to any other suggestions or potential blind spots you see. Appreciate the input!
