10 posts held, back to 24 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 10 posts for this entry, the most recent from 6 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
212 reactions across 9 posts, in 14 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 30.2% of them.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 9 of the 10 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 212 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 10 most recent posts we hold, published 24 July 2026 to 6 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

If you can’t decide whether to spend your day immersed in culture or hunting for the perfect souvenir, why not do both? We’ve curated a selection of Moscow’s finest museum gift shops — places where you’ll walk out with more than just memories. The Pushkin Museum is one of Moscow’s great homes of world art, and Its shop follows the same logic: broad, elegant and full of objects that turn art history into something yo…

Just a reminder: don’t work late Tuesday is almost over — and if you’re reading this, it means you survived it. The sun has finally clocked in too, so leave the office and see the day out properly at one of these four Moscow embankments. Taras Shevchenko Embankment: watch romantic sunlight pick a fight with the corporate glass of Moscow City. Krymskaya Embankment: fountains, open river views and enough space to pre…

Yesterday, the DR team met with Haoran Zheng, a traveler from China who is journeying across Russia by car. He has already visited Ufa, Kazan, and Moscow, and is now planning to travel to St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, and Pskov. We exchanged experiences, impressions, gifts, and plans for the future, and also visited a few interesting places — one of which is featured in our #DRtest section. 📍Chaliapin Bar at the Metr…

#DRcheers — a series with many facets. Last Friday, we delved into the world of ancient winemaking and its contemporary interpretations. Today, our focus shifts to water. In the heat, how much should you drink, how often, and at what times? Here are the key rules to keep in mind as the capital prepares for temperatures reaching 30°C: — Drink water regularly, not just when you're thirsty. — Include water-rich foods i…

What is the DR team up to right now? Exploring the fountains of the capital. One of the most recognizable water symbols of VDNKh and Moscow itself is the "Friendship of Peoples" Fountain. Its composition reflects the idea of unity and diversity among the peoples of the USSR: around the central sheaf of golden wheat ears, industrial hemp, and sunflowers sixteen female figures are positioned in national costumes, symb…

The cows behind the milkshake Tuesday is calling, and we’re answering with the first post in our #DRpeople series. Meet Maria Karaulova, founder of the Uspensky Dvorik cheese dairy in the Samara Region. On Maria’s farm, the cows have individual meal plans, receive plenty of care and attention, and listen to classical and folk music. Maria even performs for them herself, singing and playing traditional instruments. …

Emergency kits for the Monday blues Monday has arrived, the inbox is full, and the weekend is nowhere to be found — so we’ve put together a few emergency kits for Moscow and beyond. Moscow: swap your desk for a sun lounger by the new beach at Pionersky Pond in Gorky Park. St Petersburg: take an evening cruise towards the Gulf of Finland and let the sunset — and a cocktail or two — do the rest. Sochi: grab an iced c…

Discover Russia pinned a photo
Today is Friday, and with it comes a new instalment of a beloved column from a fellow creative force and executive editor at Discover Russia UTG, Dasha Chernova — #DRcheers. This time we’re taking a virtual tour of the family estate “Nikolaev & Sons,” which includes vineyards, a farm, a beehive, a range of organic products, and a restaurant that operates on a farm-to-table concept. The estate is located in the vill…

Showing the 10 most recent of 10 posts we hold for @discoverrussia. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Named by 4 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 17 September 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
