Telegram is down from 10:30 am on March 29th and does not allow users to receive and send messages. This month is already the second time that the instant messaging application has stopped working across Europe, creating serious problems for users who use the platform on a daily basis.
Recently Telegram announced that it has exceeded 200 million active users every month, but at the same time the application stability problems have also grown. TO report the operating problems was the same Russian company who announced on his Twitter account that the application is down throughout Europe and the Middle East. Even on the downdetector.com site, which allows users to understand if a service is working, thousands of reports have arrived in a short time on Telegram down. The problem appears to be quite serious, as it affects all of Europe.
Why Telegram doesn't work
In the tweet posted on your account, Telegram did not want to give the reason why the application is not working. He only reassured users by saying that he was working to solve the problem as soon as possible. A subsequent tweet from Pavel Durov, one of the creators of Telegram, explained that the reason for the malfunction was caused by the lack of electricity to the application servers. The company is doing everything to get Telegram back online, but it all depends on the datacenter provider.

The hashtag #telegramdown it immediately went viral on Twitter with hundreds of in your lenguagen users reporting the problem.
The alternatives to Telegram
If Telegram doesn't work, there is certainly no shortage of alternatives. The first is certainly WhatsApp, the most used messaging application in the world and now present on most smartphones. Another valid alternative is Facebook Messenger, a messaging service that can be used directly by Facebook. But both they don't have a feature that made Telegram's fortune: the ability to create channels that allow you to stay informed about what is happening in the world.
