I just finished working on my first Telegram bot since yesterday. I had literally zero experience with Javascript, bots and serverless deployment, but it wasn't THAT bad.

The thing is my friends and I constantly share posts from Reddit, Twitter, Bluesky, TikTok, etc, and it was pretty inconvenient to open browser/apps, considering half of them are blocked, and we have to turn VPN on every time.

I knew about embed links (reddit... -> vxreddit...), but I keep forgetting them lmao. That's why I've written an inline bot which replaces a normal link with an embed one, so I don't have to think at all
