How many Telegram public channels can have one account?

Question

I'm going to create tens of public channels but I can't... At the moment I have 8 public channels, and when I try to create a new one, I see this error:

(1) I was searching something like "telegram public channels maximum" through Google but I didn't find anything...

I didn't find anything here:

https://telegram.org/faq_channels

https://telegram.wiki/generalfaq/channels

(2) I asked their support but didn't get an answer as well.

We can't provide support for 3rd-party applications or software - we have no knowledge of their backend systems and the specifics. Any answers to such questions can only be speculation. For such support please contact the developer through the official channels. – Rohr

@Rohr I use official Telegram apps :) – Richman

And? We aren't the developers of that app and thus we're unable to provide such support. – Rohr

@Rohr I know. – Richman

Then why are you asking here? It's off-topic per the rules. – Rohr

Answer 1

TL;DR: You can create 10 public channel/group pre account now.

It was 5 when the channel is introduced in Sep 2015.

Increased to 8 at Jul 2017.

Recently it increased to 10 in Jul 2019.

Thanks. A weird limitation :) – Richman

Now 10 reserved usernames per account. It's not weird but a good feature to avoid spamming and making username reservation limited to one account. You can however use a burner number to create a new account to reserve those usernames, but it's a little bit tiresome to manage it. – Beeeater
