Questions
Why Telegram and not WhatsApp?
On Telegram every new article is sent automatically, as soon as it is published. WhatsApp only lets us post to a channel by hand, so news would arrive late or not at all.
Can other people see my phone number?
No. In a channel only kriti.life writes, and you read. Nobody, not even we, can see who follows or what their number is, and nobody can write to you through it.
Does it cost anything?
No. Telegram and the channel are free.
It’s too many notifications
Open the channel, tap its name at the top and switch Notifications off. Articles still arrive, just silently.
How do I stop?
Open the channel, tap its name, then Leave channel.
