There is a limit for accounts: 3, it's too low

Raise the limit (50, for example)

it's very likely a "won't fix" i don't think no one other than spammers needs more than 2-3 accounts.

@Aokromes it's not an api issue, the limit is due to resource consumption AFAIK

Plus Messenger can do more than 3 Accounts on mobile, so this is literally just nonsense on a desktop.

That's because multi-account implemented in different ways. Currently, almost all data is not shared between accounts and each new added account doubles the memory consumption. And since tdesktop has only 32-bit version on Windows, it will crash after hitting the 1 GB limit.

The limit is 2 GB virtual memory per process. In most cases, when Telegram virtual memory reaches 2 GB, task manager shows 1 GB of memory used
