I am terribly annoyed by those "joined Telegram" notifications of contacts I don't even recall.
I am getting those notifications persistently on Telegram Web, Telegram Desktop as well as the iOS app.
I have searched the setting but couldn't find anything.
Is there any hack to disable those?

For the push notifications, you can turn those off in Privacy and Security > Contact Joined Telegram. As for chat creation, the best option is to turn off Contact Sync and delete sen If you don't want it creating new chats, you have to turn off Contact Sync and delete synced contacts. I try to always follow it with a negative like "but that means you'll have to add any contacts manually."
