My #power9 machine distro (#archpower) does not provide a #telegram desktop package.
Compiling it is far from trivial, so I cobbled together a container spec which works almost flawless. Based on the telegram package availble in #debian #ppc64el Drawback is that no apps from the host can be used; e.g. the web browser can not be used to open links directly, as the telegram app runs in the container.
Much faster than using the telegram web version.

@dunkelstern Yeaaaah #ArchPower 😁
You're right, GPU acceleration becomes a must in heavy use cases.
Apparently it's on the roadmap, but couldn't find more precise information as to when this might become available.
This might help someone in the meantime, though: https://inkscape.org/learn/tutorials/avoid-performance-issues/

@jrozanski i love the #talos and its openness.
It is true that not every package is as well supported as on x86 machines, the #debian distro is probably the most complete.
I use a kernel from #archpower and #guix for most packages and generally very happy with the setup.
