Technology — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 20 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 98% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.
Growth
18 measurements spanning 77 days, net -15. Dots are measurements; the straight line between them is drawn to join them, not to claim we know the path taken in between — snapshots are recorded only when a count changes, so gaps mean “no change observed”, never “interpolated”. The vertical axis spans 746–766 and does not start at zero.

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 20 January 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 2 pages 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 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 15 May 2025. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Reaction mix
272 reactions across 20 posts, in 9 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 32.7% of them.

Custom emoji. 5 of the rows above are Telegram custom emoji, which the public preview renders as an element carrying only a numeric id — no character, and no image we can reach. The id is printed as-is rather than substituted with a look-alike glyph, because a stand-in would be our invention showing where a measurement should be. The counts beside them are Telegram’s.
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 20 of the 20 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 272 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 20 January 2025 to 15 May 2025, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

A paid reaction is a reader spending Telegram Stars — bought with money — on a post by @sparrowcode_en. Telegram publishes the count on the public post preview alongside ordinary reactions, and this register reads it there. It is the only figure on this site that measures money moving rather than attention.
Stars are not reactions, and the two are never added. They are rendered in the same strip on Telegram and counted in the same shape, but one is a tap and the other is a purchase. The reaction totals and the engagement rate elsewhere on this page exclude every figure in this section, and no rate here is computed against a reaction count.
This is not revenue, and we publish no currency figure. What a Star costs a reader and what it pays a channel are different numbers, Telegram takes a share we cannot observe, and the terms have changed. Converting a Star count into money would be an estimate dressed as a measurement, so the count is where we stop.
Counted over the 20 most recent posts we hold for this entry, published 20 January 2025 to 15 May 2025. Star counts above 1,000 reach us in Telegram’s short form and carry the same three-significant-figure rounding as everything else on this page.
⚠️ In case you didn't know, trial availability needs to be checked. If you statically enter "Free for 7 days", and the user has already spent the trial, it will be embarrassing
Apphud, RC and Adapti have ready-made methods for this:
Apphud.checkEligibilitiesForIntroductoryOffers()
🐤 I do everything at the start of the application - I load products, check the availability of intro/promo offers. And then on the paywa…
💳 StoreKit now allows you to reset a spent trial
Previously, if a user completed the trial, all subscriptions in the group were already without a trial
📖 Now developers can reset the flag, documentation
👔 Apple updated the guides - now you can definitely integrate web-payments in the US
📖 The most popular is Stripe. They have already published documentation for purchases in the apps
Apple was forced to approve payments on the web without commission
- only in 🇺🇸
- you can embed it now
- you can send a link to pay in push notifications
Now Apple is being pressured to roll out the system to the whole world, but their official position is to appeal
How does the difference between the 🥇 and 🥈 position in search
Below the 5th position, there is no traffic. It doesn't matter what place you're in there
But check out the difference between first and second. On the left when it was in 2nd place, on the right — in 1st place
If you're not in the top, there's no organic traffic 🤯
📊 Apple is actively rolling out the new search
On 18.4, the welcome screen already shows it as a working feature + active movements in search results over the last month
🐤 Observations: keywords separated by commas work better than direct hits (when the key consists of 2-3 words without commas)
🇰🇷💳 South Korea has implemented a verification system for subscriptions
- The user starts a trial
- The trial ends
🆕 Apple requests additional confirmation (via email and push)
- Charge / cancellation
Confirmation is only required when converting from trials and offers (when the price changes). If the user subscribes at the regular price, no confirmation is needed
The system was added due to local laws. It remains…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @sparrowcode_en. 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.
Stars beside a post are paid reactions — Telegram Stars, bought with money and spent on that post. They are a different unit from reactions and are never added to them, here or anywhere else on this page.
Appears in Telegram’s recommendations for other channels
The reverse of the list above, and a different kind of signal. This does not require this channel to have ever been asked about directly — each row below is a channel we DID ask Telegram about, whose Telegram-generated list happened to include this one. A channel can appear here with an empty list above it, because being named by someone else’s query is independent of having been queried itself.
