CleanURL: Telegram bot to remove tracking parameters and parse social content

Comments (1)

HeyMeco · 3m ago

Today I'm showcasing my open source (written in Go) Telegram bot that does a few things that are nice to have for group chats:

1. Clean any URL of Tracking Parameters

2. Parse TikTok (Videos / Photos), Instagram (Reels / Posts), Twitter/X (All posts) in a way that you don’t need to leave the Telegram App to view the content. This utilizes either open source tools like FxEmbed to switch the domain or for tiktok photos attaches them as a gallery reply.

There’s an extensive list of rules https://github.com/HeyMeco/Sanitized-TG-URL-Bot/blob/main/ru... that are being used to accomplish this.

We've used this happily for months now and from feedback I know it’s being used in bigger channels too. As I do no logging I cannot say more about its popularity.

You can add it to your group chat or channel from this link: https://t.me/sanitizeurlbot
