These have now started gating like private groups in Telegram. August added

to them.

Oh! OK, I think. ;)

All members of the group can add others to the group.

That's a good thing. "A friend tells a friend.." It also generates a kind of accountability when someone adds someone new.

I can do it in open groups, but it is fraught with SPAM.
As I create other echo conferences, I will do the same.

Moderators that have Telegram accounts could announce that the request to be added with a message addressed to @<moderator>

That's ok. I understand the reason. It's actually a pretty
good way for a moderator (if they are a creator of a group on
the TgM side) to have good control of new users.
