Delete Large Telegram Channels and Groups Without Support Involvement
Readers have reported that in the latest versions of the Telegram app, users can now delete large channels and groups on their own, without needing to contact support. Previously, attempts to delete a sizable channel resulted in an error message; channel deletion required submitting a request to Telegram's support.
A source close to Telegram informed @tginfo that this change is intentional and is not a mistake.
To delete a channel or group with a thousand or more participants, the owner must meet several requirements:
• The user's session must have been active for several days.
• The account must be secured with a cloud password.
• The password should have been enabled several days prior.
If even one of these criteria isn't met, you won't be able to delete a large channel or group.
The updated Telegram apps now require several clicks to delete a channel. After the final confirmation, it shows an additional five second countdown timer for users to reverse the action.
The messenger didn't update its docs yet — it still claims it's impossible to delete a large channel with an API request.

Changes in The Telegram Boost System
On November 6th, administrators of channels gained the ability to organize giveaways. At the same time, the logic of receiving and using boosts changed. The @tginfo team explains all the main changes in the boost system.
Boost for users
Now users receive:
• 4 boosts for buying a paid subscription;
• 3 boosts for gifting a subscription to another user;
• 1 boost for receiving a subscription as a gift from another user.
• No boots for receiving a subscription as a gift from a channel.
Each boost is available to a user throughout the entire period of validity of the corresponding Premium subscription. For example, if you bought a 12-month subscription, you will have four boosts for one year. If you gifted a 3-month subscription to your friend, he will have three additional boosts for three months.
Using boosts
A user can give all their boosts to one or several channels. If they didn't give away all their boosts before November 6th, then after this date the may have a few new unused boosts.
Viewing information about boosts
A user can see information about their boosts only when they have given away all their boosts: until then this information is not available to them. If a user without any free boosts tries to boost a channel, the app will show a list of used boosts with information about their validity periods and the channels they were given to.
Boosts for channels
Before November 6th, a channel had to gain a certain number of boosts to progress to the next level. After November 6th, this number was increased — to 0.4%.
