Upstream Bugs

jemalloc/jemalloc#2639

[theofficialgman]

looks like telegram flatpak is built with an incorrectly configured build of jemalloc that does not support 16K pagesize. this is an upstream bug that you should report at https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/issues . Once you have reported the bug upstream please drop a link here to it.

In the meantime, you can switch to the 4K pagesize kernel to run telegram without a fix from upstream -> raspberrypi/bookworm-feedback#107 (comment)
