    International on Telegram.

    Mageia Linux has opened a new discussion and support group for all users
    and developers of the Mageia Linux operating system.

    Mageia Linux International can be found on Telegram: https://t.me/mageia_international

    There are a dozen subgroups for general users, tips and customisations, tutorials updates, security, gaming, networking, bugs.

    Of course because this is all new, not all the subgroups are populated
    yet with messages.

    Have a look!

    About Telegram:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegram_(software)
    a cloud-based, cross-platform social media and instant messaging (IM) service.

    Site's faq:
    https://telegram.org/faq#q-what-is-telegram-what-do-i-do-here

    The site directs you to dl/s for various systems if you are inclined.

    The OP's link is to a page that wants Telegram to access.

    Ambiguous. The OP's link works in a browser; in order to proceed from
    that page you must go Telegram.

    But, as I indicated, in my Browser the site didn't work.

    in order to proceed from that page you must go Telegram.


    O.K., reconstituting the Link in my Ff did bring up a Telegram page.
