#Telegram #Strategy #Question

Another reason I think TEXT is a terrible idea in YouTube thumbnails: embeds.

You cannot control the shape of the space your video is displayed in. Therefore you cannot control the display of text contained in your YouTube thumbnail.

I would recommend not including text in YouTube thumbnails.

WhatsApp introduces disappearing messages.

"Today, WhatsApp messages often live on our phones forever. While it’s great to hold onto memories from friends and family, most of what we send doesn’t need to be everlasting.

Our goal is to make conversations on WhatsApp feel as close to in-person as possible, which means they shouldn’t have to stick around forever. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the option to use disappearing messages on WhatsApp.

When disappearing messages is turned on, new messages sent to a chat will disappear after seven days, helping the conversation feel lighter and more private. In a one-to-one chat, either person can turn disappearing messages on or off. In groups, admins will have the control."

Sometimes when you share a YouTube link on Twitter you end up sharing just the link: no embedded video. Why is that?

One reason is the link has not yet been cached.

An easy fix, PING! Refresh the page and Twitter will have cached the link.

You can embed comments made on public Telegram channel post

The comment is a reply, so the channel post is shown at the top of the embed to give more context. Clicking the context area opens the channel post.

Here is that comment for reference.

Telegram does Twitter as well, or better than, any other brand.
