Unclickable links in profiles. Why did they disappear?
Since the appearance of groups and channels in Telegram, they had a description, later links in it became active ... In September 2017, descriptions appeared in user profiles. For three years (until October 2020), links in the profile description were clickable only in unofficial clients and Telegram X for Android.
With the Telegram update to version 7.2 (version 2.4.5 for Telegram Desktop), the situation has changed.
In the description of the user and groups, the following are highlighted:
- Usernames (@tginfoen).
- Links t.me and telegram.org (t.me/tginfoen).
- Links telegra.ph and telesco.pe
In the description of channels and bots, the following are highlighted:
- Usernames (@tginfoen).
- Links t.me and telegram.org (t.me/tginfoen).
- Links telegra.ph and telesco.pe
- Other links (tginfo.me).
It seems rather strange that even links to telegra.ph (an article writing service from Telegram) are not highlighted. In many cases, the group description included a link to the rules or useful links using this service (due to the support of Instant View).
Take part in our pool: do you use links in the description and are they important to you, and in the comments to the survey, you can indicate cases of using links in the description of a group or profile.
UPD: The updated version has added support for links to telegra.ph.
