3rd party Telegram app? (lemmy.ml)

The official Telegram app with ads that appear at inconvenient locations bugs me. Any recomendations for a good FOSS Telegram client that does not show ads?

Extergaram is pretty good. I have been using it for about 4 months now. I feel like this is the best fork I've tried.

Previously I have tried Nekogram X and for a very short while Forkgram

Does Telegram actively enforce stuff against third party clients? Like if I use a third party client, is my account at risk of being banned?

I don't think so. As long as you are not in some shady third party fork, you will be okay.

I have been using telegram forks for some time now, never encountered a ban or anything like that.
