This Telegram bot, built with Pyrogram V2, extracts and forwards content from public and private channels/groups, including restricted messages and files up to 4GB. It targets users needing to save or redistribute content from Telegram, offering features like custom thumbnails, filename/caption manipulation, and YouTube/social media downloading.

How It Works

The bot leverages Pyrogram V2 for enhanced stability and session-based login. It supports direct content extraction via message links or by processing forwarded messages. For large file uploads (up to 4GB), it requires a premium account session string. It integrates with ytdlp for downloading from various sites and includes optional monetization via link shorteners.
