You are right, Telegram is VERY popular media platform in Eastern Europe. In particular it's very popular tool to resist government's censorship and propaganda in such dictatorship's states like Russia or Belarus. People are put in jail even if they just read some opposition telegram channels, so using bridges like this one is an attempt to mitigate those risks.

No, in this implementation I just scrap web-version of the Telegram and don't use their API. For more complex parsing of telegram posts (like extraction of attachments, user reactions and replies) you will need to use their API and for sure it will require to have an account

Actually there are few options how potentially do it even more cheaper - for example switch to arm-based lambdas or optimize execution time. Actually I don't have yet any statistics how much it could cost for me (I use it for about 50 Telegram channels and my RSS client check for updates in the feed every hour), but looks like I will not even rich AWS free tear limit in 1 million free executions.

Thank you!

Hi everyone, I'd like to share with you some thing I've decided to do - and as you've read it in the title of the post, right - that's the my own Telegram channel about Quarkus news and related stuff!

What's Quarkus? Quarkus - Kubernetes native Java stack tailored for GraalVM & OpenJDK HotSpot, crafted from the best of breed Java libraries and standards!

And, right, my channel is in Russian. Why? I'm from Eastern Europe (Belarus) and here we speak mostly in Russian, but unfortunately I don't see a lot of discussions about Quarkus in local communities. So I decided, that such thing like Telegram channel could change existing situation and could help to bring together folks that would be interesting in Quarkus adoption in our region.
