Comments are how people interact with something.
In the case of a Telegram channel, when the admin shares something, they may want to get people’s comments regarding the same.
In such a case, you must enable Telegram channel comments.
If you want people to comment on your Telegram channel, you are in the right place.
When enabling comments on Telegram Channels, your best option is to connect the Telegram channel with a Telegram group. That way, all posts you share in the Telegram channel can be accessed in the Telegram group, and members can comment on them. Open your Telegram and access the settings section of the Telegram channel. Under the option for “Discussion,” link your Telegram group.
We will understand a Telegram Channel. We will see how Telegram Channels work and the steps to enable comments on Telegram Channels on Android, iPhone, and Telegram desktops. Let’s begin!
Can You Comment on a Telegram Channel?
A Telegram channel acts as a broadcast option for Telegram users. When you are a content creator and want to keep your followers updated, you can create a Telegram channel to share other updates with them.
The Telegram channel only permits the admin to send messages. Other members can only see the shared message. So, you need a Telegram group to enable commenting on a Telegram channel.
When you connect your Telegram channel to a group, members can share their comments on the Telegram group for every post or content shared on the Telegram channel.
The admin will then see the shared comments and can respond to them. That’s how commenting on Telegram channels work.
Commenting is disabled by default, and only the admin can link a Telegram group to the Telegram channel to support commenting.
