Then you can say that converting JAM/Squish/MSG bases is
"gating" to FTN.

In this case, the messages on Telegram servers is in Telegram
format. The public API allows Stas to build a tosser/scanner
that understands that format.  That's not much different than
a sysop using whatever tosser/scanner that can work with Jam/
Squish/MSG.

Meanwhile, we use the Telegram app as a client that is not
much different than using an nntp, telnet, or ssh client.
