Could you build this?
No Forking and modifying Telegram Desktop involves a massive, complex C++ codebase utilizing Qt, custom rendering pipelines, and the MTProto encryption stack.
What it would actually take: Requires extensive C++ and Qt GUI engineering expertise to navigate Telegram Desktop's multi-million-line codebase. Modifying deep UI components (Material styling) and anti-features (like ghost mode/anti-delete from AyuGram) requires patch management against upstream, deep understanding of MTProto protocol handling, and setting up massive, complex cross-platform build systems (CMake/Ninja).
