Penultimate command above will start the Telegram application. One it is started it will create automatically the necessary .desktop files, so you can find Telegram within the GNOME's applications list. Also you could setup Telegram to automatically start at user log-in from within its settings.

Lin­ux Desk­top

In­stall the lat­est ver­sion of the NextCloud Client

For Lin­ux, the NextCloid desk­top client is avail­able as Ap­pIm­age. Here is how to deeply it via the com­mand line.

cd ~/Downloads
wget -O Nextcloud.AppImage \
$(curl https://nextcloud.com/install/ | grep -Po 'https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/releases/download/v[\d.]{5,9}/Nextcloud-[\d.]{5,9}-x86_64.AppImage')
mkdir ~/.local/share/NextCloud
mv Nextcloud.AppImage ~/.local/share/NextCloud
chmod +x ~/.local/share/Nextcloud/Nextcloud.AppImage
~/.local/share/Nextcloud/Nextcloud.AppImage

In­stall the NextCloud Client from Kali's repos­i­to­ry

The NextCloud client is is al­so avail­able in the Kali's repos­i­to­ry (prob­a­bly in Ubuntu's and Debian's ones). The ver­sion in the repos­i­to­ry is lit­tle bit old­er but it works as it is ex­pect­ed with my NextCloud serv­er.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nextcloud-desktop
sudo apt install nautilus-nextcloud

Short­cuts

If you want to put a Telegram icon at the desk­top ex­e­cute the fol­low­ing com­mand. Note Telegram must be start­ed at least one time be­fore run­ning the find/​​​copy com­mand be­low.

find ~/.local -type f -name 'appimagekit*Telegram*.desktop' -exec cp {} ~/Desktop/Telegram.desktop \;
sed -r -e '/^(Version|SingleMainWindow)/d' -e 's/^(Name=Telegram).*$/\1/' ~/Desktop/Telegram.desktop -i

Then right click on the new icon at the desk­top and choice on the Al­low Launch­ing op­tion. Or run the fol­low­ing com­mands which will do the same for you. 

desktop-file-install --mode=0755 --dir=$HOME/Desktop ~/Desktop/Telegram.desktop
dbus-launch gio set ~/Desktop/Telegram.desktop "metadata::trusted" true
