Explain in technical detail why the cool features (like stickers) can't be implemented with E2EE when Signal is doing that at constant pace?

Telegram doesn't have E2E encryption for groups or Windows/Linux desktop clients, even if you try to toggle something. So your argument is false.

Stickers do work in Telegram secret chat, though. Only animated stickers don't, presumably in order to avoid leaking IPs. But a lot of cool features do work in secret chat.
