Struct Channel

pub struct Channel {
    pub raw: Channel,
}

A broadcast channel.

In a broadcast channel, only administrators can broadcast messages to all the subscribers. The rest of users can only join and see messages.

Broadcast channels and megagroups both are treated as “channels” by Telegram’s API, but this variant will always represent a broadcast channel. The only difference between a broadcast channel and a megagroup are the permissions (default, and available).
