Telegram for the media or how I started writing my bot

Hello, dear reader!

My name is Sergey and I am a developer. More recently, I thought about creating a Telegram bot that would collect news for me from various sources. I coped with this task for several evenings. I parsed a couple of sites that were interesting to me and launched it all on my server.

How did it all start?

Everything worked well and was fine, Telegram copes with the loads that go to the bot, although it sometimes fails, but it is not so critical. And we live with my bot, but recently we see that people are beginning to close news aggregators, so that there is no oozing information.

And then I became infected with the idea of ​​doing something anonymous, then where the interested person would say, and read everything , then no one controls (well, if there is no complete nonsense there) the person in his formulations. What if to give such people a broadcasting tool? And here I mean adequate broadcasting, a subjective fact, I will not argue.

Why am I doing this?

And then I realized that the bot was right for the moment, and I began to work on it further. Now I hope he is ready to appear to the world.

A small page was created for people who want to write news for interesting sources, for those who are not afraid to tell the truth or their opinion.

As a result, I got a place where people are not afraid to say something, but on the contrary, they are trying to convey interesting thoughts and facts to other people.

What am I waiting for in the end?

At best, I want to grow this project into something more than just the bot in which you read the news. I want to create a society in which people exchange opinions with people, where nothing restricts them, where they are free in their statements.

In the end, I want to get away from the concept - the news aggregator.

And at the output to receive content that people themselves could generate and no matter who they are, workers from Voronezh or experienced journalists from Channel One. For me, it doesn’t matter who you are, even because apart from% username% in Telegram I don’t know anything.
