On whatsapp you have 1. Filters for stories 2. Share something directly to stories 3. High limit of stories per day 4. Free text formatting 5. Text story with link support
I find it quite silly to compare the current daily limits for stories on Telegram (๐ช ) with WhatsApp (๐คฎ ) for many reasons, including:
1) The current limits are required for a soft launch - we need to have a gradual increase in load, not a spike. Itโs always easier to increase the limits server-side post launch rather than decrease them.
2) Stories on Telegram are a very different genre as they are displayed on the main screen, not buried in a separate tab as on WhatsApp. As such, they are much more visible and can also be much more annoying if allowed with no limits at all.

I disagree that the blue header is โuglyโ but agree that as Telegram becomes more focused on media (such as stories), the blue background starts to look โnoisyโ and obsolete.
The white (semi-transparent blurred) header is eventually coming on Android. We tried many different versions of it in the last few years. We shall launch the white header for everyone once we get it right and we are certain the devices of the majority can support it without battery drain.
By the way, 14.08.2023 is the 10-year anniversary of the iOS app. Not the Android one๐คซ
