Ask HN: Any one using telegram for work?
We are small team and we tried to use slack at work and it seems heavy for us. We started using Telegram groups and telegram bots. I'm curious to know anyone else using Telegram groups and bots at work?
That alone would be the dealbreaker for me.
If I was at a tiny startup that was just getting off the ground, I might be more open to using Telegram for the use-case you're describing.
But once you're dealing with a real business, several employees and several paying customers with significant revenue implications, I'd switch to a known and trusted entity that has enterprise support (like Slack, Teams, Hangouts, etc).
But I've yet to find many good organizational bots. I have pondered writing one that would keep track of #hashtags used in the group so that you could find old posts more easily, for instance.
