APIs come in many flavors, each suited for different needs. SOAP, though reliable for enterprise apps, feels outdated with its XML complexity. RESTful APIs are still the go-to for simplicity and wide adoption, but they can suffer from over- or under-fetching data.
GraphQL is the modern favorite, perfect for getting exactly the data you need—great for front-end flexibility. gRPC shines in high-performance, microservices-heavy environments, while WebSockets handle real-time, low-latency communication brilliantly. Finally, Webhooks are ideal for event-driven applications with asynchronous needs.
In today’s world, GraphQL or RESTful APIs often dominate, but your choice should depend on your app’s specific requirements.

A Telegram spokesman declined to comment on the bond issue or the amount of the debt the company has due. The spokesman said Telegram’s equipment and bandwidth costs are growing because it has consistently posted more than 40% year-to-year growth in users.
Telegram auto-delete message, expiring invites, and more
elegram is updating its messaging app with options for auto-deleting messages, expiring invite links, and new unlimited groups, the company shared in a blog post. Much like Signal, Telegram received a burst of new users in the confusion over WhatsApp’s privacy policy and now the company is adopting features that were already part of its competitors’ apps, features which offer more security and privacy. Auto-deleting messages were already possible in Telegram’s encrypted Secret Chats, but this new update for iOS and Android adds the option to make messages disappear in any kind of chat. Auto-delete can be enabled inside of chats, and set to delete either 24 hours or seven days after messages are sent. Auto-delete won’t remove every message though; if a message was sent before the feature was turned on, it’ll stick around. Telegram’s competitors have had similar features: WhatsApp introduced a feature in 2020 and Signal has had disappearing messages since at least 2016.
