The following issues need votes on Qt bugreports to get more priority and finally get fixed:

1. Unicode Letters Can't Show in Telegram Desktop on Mac OS #6056 - https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-117399, https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-99434, https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-102094

Flickering on Mac has been happening for ages. Primarily on dual screen Macs and it is VERY annoying -- it makes TG unusable. I hope that this gets really worked on.

[ilya-fedin]

The thing is there's no one working on that and other issues in the list. This issue is to tell about that and signal anyone interested their help is highly appreciated.

At this rate ... if OP will submit to Gitcoin for a grant, I'll contribute to it.

@ilya-fedin #26339 is closed, related ticket on GitLab is closed too https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/issues/1571, but Telegram on my laptop still have an issue with inconsistent cursor theme. Should I wait for next release?

[ilya-fedin]

I don't know, but Telegram release won't help as the change is not in Telegram.

That's been finally fixed with the newest update of org.freedesktop.Platform!

Regarding #17173 I created this bugreport: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471443

Nice, finally someone has done this

@ilya-fedin, sorry, I should open new issue or do something else. I deleted my comment.

@TaiTaiTai777 is this a chatgpt answer?

[ilya-fedin]

@TaiTaiTai777 well, I'm just a bit baffled by the python code you provided. E.g. the send_update_email one, it doesn't really have any sense to me - what's the point to send information about votes and example to Qt maintainers with a mail? They have Jira system where you're supposed create reports and have an example from the beginning. Mails about new votes are likely to be disturbing and, moreover, I don't imagine how a script would be informed about new votes as the voting happens on Qt's Jira.

[ilya-fedin]

Now to the proposals which I understand partially at least:

• Create a dedicated webpage or section in the Telegram Desktop community/support forum to list the issues that require community voting.

Which forum? tdesktop doesn't have a forum afaik...

• Organize community hackathons or "bug squashing" sessions where developers can collaborate to create minimal reproducible examples.

Who would organize them and how?

• Leverage contributions from seasoned developers in the community to reduce the burden on individual contributors.

Where would you get those seasoned developers from? To my understanding, tdesktop community doesn't have such ones, every time I say to someone that their issue isn't a priority and they can speed up it by providing a patch, they say that they either not a developer at all or not a C++ developer.

• Recognize and reward community contributors who actively participate in the issue reporting and voting process.

Where to get those rewards from?

It's chat jippity word salad. It means nothing. Not even worth asking the meaning, as the poster himself has no idea. Don't let them waste your time "debugging" their copy pasta.
