Hi all,
...
Going back to the bug, which Matthias has filed a while ago,
we have reviewed it and I'm glad to say we found a middle
ground. To avoid everyone having to open the site, I will
simply re-state the comment here:
Hi all,
In a private conversation with Matthias I said I hoped we
would revisit this matter when Telegram 2.x was out. Now that
it happened, and this bug report has been brought again to my
attention, we have reviewed it. We have a solution that I
believe would satisfy the requirements set by the bug
description.
The proposed solution is the following:
The application may provide a setting to turn off "send
message read notifications for received messages". The user
who chooses to do that will in turn not see "message read
notifications for sent messages". I think it is fair and that
is a solution we are happy to go ahead with.
While we will do our best to continue maintaining and
hopefully growing Telegram for Ubuntu, we are currently short
on cycles. Therefore, we would be more than happy to accept a
merge proposal with this feature, we simply can't commit to it
at the moment as there are more higher priority bugs right
now. But I am changing the bug status from "Won't fix" right
now.
Have a great day,
karni
