"تعداد کمی از افراد خارج از جامعه طرفداران تلگرام متوجه می‌شوند که بیشتر ویژگی‌های جدید در پیام‌رسان‌ها ابتدا در تلگرام ظاهر می‌شوند و سپس توسط واتس‌اپ با جزئیات دقیق کپی می‌شوند"

Let's break this down. What the quote is really saying is that Telegram is the trailblazer in the world of messaging apps. Essentially, it comes up with the coolest new features first. Then, WhatsApp, which is way more popular, sees what Telegram's cooked up and copies those innovations almost exactly.

So, when was this idea relevant? Well, this has been a thing for a while now. Telegram's been around since 2013 and it's always been kind of the underdog. But it’s the underdog that’s constantly coming up with neat new stuff. Think back to when stickers became a thing in messaging. Telegram had them first. Then, boom, they’re on WhatsApp. Same deal with animated emojis, secret chats, and so on.

Now, let’s look at a real-life example to make this concrete. Remember when WhatsApp introduced the “unsend” or “delete for everyone” feature? Super handy, right? Sent a text to the wrong person? No problem, just pull it back. Before WhatsApp added it, Telegram had this feature up and running. You could delete messages for both you and the recipient long before WhatsApp even thought to add it. And it worked seamlessly on Telegram.

So, how can you apply this bit of wisdom? If you’re always on the lookout for the latest and greatest in tech, maybe give Telegram a try. Sure, your friends might be all about WhatsApp, but being on Telegram means you get to play with the new toys first. And hey, sometimes it feels good to be the person in the know, right?

Imagine this: You're sitting at a coffee shop with a friend. They’re complaining about how WhatsApp doesn't let you customize your chat background. You casually mention, “You know, Telegram’s had that feature for ages. You can even set different backgrounds for different chats.” Your friend looks at you, genuinely surprised. You’ve just become the tech guru in their eyes.

Or think about a small business owner who's trying to pick a messaging platform for customer service. They've heard of WhatsApp, sure, but you suggest they check out Telegram. You tell them about the features Telegram had first—like bots that can handle customer inquiries automatically. They’re intrigued. They give it a shot and find it's perfect for their needs.

That's the power of knowing who the real innovator is. It’s not just about being a tech nerd (though that’s cool too). It’s about having the edge, whether it's in personal life or business.

If you’re the kind of person who loves being ahead of the curve, or just wants to impress your friends with your tech-savviness, keep an eye on what Telegram’s doing. You never know when the next big feature on WhatsApp is something you could be using right now on Telegram. And that, my friend, is how you stay one step ahead.
