About this application

Kotatogram is an alternative client for the Telegram messaging service, built on top of the official desktop source code with a focus on experimental features and interface adjustments. It provides access to standard Telegram functionalities such as end-to-end encrypted chats, channel management, file sharing, and cloud synchronization, while introducing modifications to how chats and notifications are displayed. Users can run the application on Linux environments, benefiting from the familiar messaging infrastructure enhanced by additional customization settings.

The project explores interface layouts and operational tweaks that differ from the mainline client, catering to users who want more control over visual density and window behavior. As an unofficial client, it relies on the core Telegram API and protocol while maintaining its own release cycle and specific codebase additions. It does not alter the fundamental communication protocols of the messaging network, ensuring compatibility with existing contacts and group chats while offering a distinct user experience.
