📱✨ Wow, the groundbreaking #innovation of switching 5 fewer apps a day! An #app to do what complex brains have been doing for years: remembering things. 🙄 Flexiboard: because who wouldn't want to clutter their keyboard with random "productivity" widgets? 🙃 #LifeChanging #NotReally

Irming.com · Code and Music, Timelines and LifelinesWhen I kick the bucket drum, I’ll leave behind three creations: my spawn and 10 buckets of bits. One bucket full of code and another brimming with notes. /* No, not these kinds of notes. */ Perhaps the artifact in this Game Over scene will instead be more akin to a single, large, loud volume where .exe and .wav files have gone to fade out their filename extensions and merge with abandon. In the game loop of my biocomputer, this is the degree to which for-loops and 16-bar loops play off each other and engage in a constant, consonant, interdisciplinary dance of call and response. I am reflecting not on some shallow, semantic version of symbols and cymbals in symbiosis but a real, requisite reciprocity recursing deep into namespace SubBass.

irming.com/posts/pros_and_cons

Irming.com · Pros and Cons Are InseparableWhile my perception of my own knowledge path has been something like “I know nothing” -> “I know everything” -> “I know nothing”, engineers at any level can become overly convinced that their own approach is the correct one. A junior engineer straight out of school may be overly biased toward approaches taught there, which may or may not be effective in, for instance, a heavily product- and market-driven environment. Someone with a few years of experience may, due to their own definition of what success looks like, believe they have arrived and there’s not much more to learn. (This was me during the dot-com bubble.) A senior engineer with a decade or more of either going deep or wide can become too set in their ways and reluctant to incorporate different thinking, like single-brain groupthink. The rock star engineer, if you subscribe to such a thing, may well have developed an ego matching the size and approach attributes of a tropical island dictatorship.

The next #ai fueled #productivity paradigm shift in #academia will be agents that can listen to context-specific voice instructions like "cross reference the people in this mail thread with speakers in my conference session" or "discuss the paper on the screen in the context of 20th century philosophy of science", and the agent calmly replies "SHUT THE F UP AND CONCENTRATE ON THE TASK, YOU LAZY ASS".

TelegramMediaRelayBot: automate content sharing - even if recipients aren't on the platform!

Problem :blobcatdead: :
You found cool content, but:
- friends are not registered on the platform (like TikTok or Reddit)
- are too lazy to click on links and look at
- don't want to bother with saving files or registering on a new platform

Having to download, forward the same thing manually to everyone and clean up your device's memory. Does this sound like a familiar hell? This is exactly the reason I created a bot.

What kind of beast is it? :blobcateyes:
TelegramMediaRelayBot is a bot that downloads content from any sources supported by yt-dlp and gallery-dl (TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, etc.) and automatically forwards it to the right people.

Its trick: It turns your “save → forward → delete” into a single action: throw a link → bot did it all. ✨

Why is this a breakthrough? :blobcatcomfaww:
For anyone and everyone:
It doesn't matter if you share with friends, colleagues or subscribers - the bot works even if they don't have accounts on the original platform. The bot works even without contacts (just downloads files to you in chat).

Self-host:
Full control over your data? Deploy your own version (documentation: zenonel.github.io/TelegramMedi).

No analogs:
I searched for similar solutions - and couldn't find anything. This is the first bot that combines downloading, forwarding and contact management in one place.

What does the bot know how to do? :blobcatcooljazz:
Now:
- Downloads content via yt-dlp and gallery-dl (galleries, playlists, videos) 🎬
- Contact book - add people and send them files in one click 👥
- Automation: Customize how the bot handles links (ex: “If I haven't changed my mind in 5 seconds - download and share content according to my rules") ⏱️
- Group work - supports Telegram group chats. Send a link - the bot will download content and send it to the group 💬
- Proxies and other smaller functions

Expect v3.0 to be released:
- Only a couple of features left to do for it

Future versions:
- Various improvements and innovations - advanced privacy settings, updated documentation and more 🔮

How it works. :blobcatboo:
1. you: Send the bot a link (+ description with a new line if necessary)
2. bot: Downloads the content → Sends it to your contacts based on your settings
3. you: Enjoy life and the new automation in it

Why you'll love it. ❤️
- Free and Open Source: The project is created for personal use, not for profit. No hidden code or subscriptions
- Flexible: Even without contacts - use it as your personal cloud in Telegram. Add hashtags to your files (#memes, #gifs) to easily find them
- Simplicity: You don't need any supernatural effort to get started. Just take a little time to customize and you're good to go. Don't forget to invite the people you want to see in the bot!

What's up with the monetization? 💰
- Plans: In the future it will be possible to support the project through donations to the card or Boosty 💳
- Optional: With the plugin system it will be possible to buy ready-made modules (referrals, custom limits, etc) to monetize your copy of the bot. The basic version will remain free

✨ Feedback & Suggestions
Your input is incredibly valuable to me! Help make this bot perfect not just for me, but by building a community that will love and nurture it together:

- What to add? What features would you love to see?
- What to fix? Found a bug or something awkward? Let me know!
- What to improve? Any idea — from design to functionality.

💬 Reach out via GitHub Issues or on Mastodon (@ZenonEl). Your suggestions might shape the next update and accelerate the project's growth!

🍪 Bonus: Find a similar bot? Get a virtual fortune cookie from me! And if the bot saves you 10 minutes daily — you'll make me one happy :blobcatheart:

P.S. Even a quick "I wish there was a button for..." or "Could we do this?" is a fantastic start. Thanks for taking time to read this, and extra thanks if you choose to stay with me and the project! 🙌

Tweaked this a little so instead of displaying the final result it will:

1.Still copy it to clipboard just in case

2. Create a notes folder Weekly Report if it’s not there yet

3. Create a new note with today’s date as a title and put all your events there.

Tried it today - soooo much better than doing all that manually.

P.S.: for quite some time I struggled to find real use cases for #appleshortcuts but I guess it finally starts to dawn on me 🙌🏻
