As every android user I try tons of apps. Mostly Foss or at least privacy friendly apps. Thought of gathering app links and categorizing them in a telegram channel. Please have a look if you want and also join the chat for app suggestions. thanks.

      Matrix does not have search filter. Actually does not have any search at all in groups

      Also there is no way categorise messages by any mean

      In telegram I just add a # in the post Then Users tap on the # and all related messages appear

      Easy

      And fast

      If anyone can suggest a telegram alternative that can be publicly accessed without an account,can use tags and create a media and text preview from the providing link I’ll be more than happy to use that instead

      I used telegram after thought

        Why not just make a lemmy community? There is no tag feature but you can have it so only moderators post if you wish.

          Tags are essential. As all other features I mentioned. There are tons of app lists out there. Git repos,websites,subredits even app stores, none of this option are ideal for a quick post that will provide a brief preview , catecorisation , public accessibility and user comments at the same time.

          Lemmy would be great though. It has link previews. Can be webviewed without an account. Has user interaction. There is also progress on the tag system. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/317#issuecomment-1688384524 If it ever goes upstream and implemented it will be perfect

    If possible could you put this information in a more easy to access and public location? Perhaps a simple website or even something in a pastebin would be more convenient and accessible than in a telegram group. Thanks!

      That would require a lot more work. The idea behind the channel is to have an instant share and categorisation of an app I and other found and want to share and then use the related channel group to comment about it

      You can access the channel from a web browser adding /s/ to the url https://t.me/s/favandroidapps

      Tap on #tags on the pinned message to view only message with the selected tag

      ps:Updated the post link with the web version of the channel
