New Features of Web-Bots
Web-bots will be able to send payment invoices as link. They can be opened on browser, forwarded to friends, or posted to a channel. Probably, not only web-bots, but simple ones will have opportunity to create such links.
Previously, invoices were issued only using a special bot (for example, the "Donate" button under the message).
โWeb-bots will be able to open an invoice and track its status (paid, canceled, completed with an error) and provide information about it.
A clickable link like https://t.me/invoice/tginfo will allow you to make payments in a few clicks.
Links like tg://invoice?slug=tginfo will be available directly inside Telegram
Such links will start working in the next updates of the messenger, but for now they redirect the user to an unknown @invoice channel.

Hong Kong is considering blocking Telegram
On Tuesday, the local newspaper Sing Tao Daily reported, which is the Commissioner for Personal Privacy Data is considering restricting access to Telegram for distributing personal data of government officials and citizens.
The authorities have so far avoided Internet restrictions similar to China, where many foreign services are banned by the great Chinese firewall.
A Telegram representative commented to Bloomberg about the situation:
Telegram supports freedom of speech and the right of users to protest peacefully. However, content that discloses personal information without consent (doxxing) is not allowed and is regularly removed.
In 2020, Telegram spokesman Mikhail Ravdovnikas reported that Telegram did not intend to process any data requests relating to its users in Hong Kong until there was an international consensus on current political changes in the city.
In September, Hong Kong tightened data privacy laws to prevent doxxing. Blocking Telegram could be a logical step in the fight against doxing after 2019 protesters released details about police officers and other government employees.
Officials will consider public opinion before making a decision.

Telegram Design System in Figma
After the advent of web bots, an obvious problem was the lack of official tools for creating web interfaces that fit into the overall design of Telegram.
However, you can take advantage of Figma's Telegram Android client interface components created by a team of third-party designers.
The project has all the elements of the application's interface. The package consists of more than 40 pages of components and explanations on their use, various guides and tips. This will help you understand the Telegram design system in detail, as well as create interfaces for web bots, concepts for @designers, and more.
Thus, developers can spend less resources on design and focus more on the features themselves. At that time, users will get a consistent design across most bots.

Pavel Durov officially announced the introduction of a paid Telegram Premium subscription this month in his Telegram channel.
ยซAfter giving it some thought, we realized that the only way to let our most demanding fans get more while keeping our existing features free is to make those raised limits a paid option. That's why this month we will introduce Telegram Premium, a subscription plan that allows anyone to acquire additional features, speed and resources. It will also allow users to support Telegram and join the club that receives new features firstยป.
Pavel said that all Telegram's existing functions will remain free for everyone. Moreover, the app will continue to be updated with new publicly available features. And those users who will not buy a Premium subscription will be able to take advantage of some of its advantages: for example, viewing premium stickers with full-screen animations, downloading larger files, or adding a Premium response to a message (provided that all this is sent by a paid subscriber).
Despite the successful experiment with advertising in public channels, Pavel Durov believes that Telegram should be primarily funded by users, not advertisers.

Pavel Durov accused Apple for its restrictions on web applications
In April, the developer of Telegram WebK shared a list of Safari issues that Apple hasn't fixed on iOS in years.
โWe suspect that Apple may be intentionally crippling its web apps to force its users to download more native apps where Apple is able to charge its 30% commission,โ Pavel Durov wrote.
This week, the Competition and Markets Authority (the UK regulator) expressed a concern that Apple is banning alternatives to its own browser on its mobile devices.
โIt's sad that, more than ten years after Steve Job's death, a company that once revolutionized mobile web turned into its most significant roadblock,โ added Pavel Durov.
