Stories basically work like they do on other platforms. People can post photos and videos, add text and links, and tag others. The way to react to them is through emojis or comments.
Durov long refused to add this functionality to his app, because according to him it was already in others. However, the demand of millions of users convinced him to take that step.

Stories come to Telegram
