-**TelegramMediaRelayBot** is a self-hosted Telegram bot that automates downloading media from 1000+ platforms (via [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/tree/master) and gallery-dl) and forwards it to your contacts. It eliminates manual downloads, simplifies media sharing across platforms users don't have, and gives full control over privacy by running entirely on your infrastructure.

You send a link, it fetches the media and passes it to the people you pick. Because it runs on your own machine, the files and your contact list stay off third-party servers, which also lets you share from platforms your contacts don't use.

 ## Key Features
 
-- **Multi-platform downloads**: yt-dlp for video, gallery-dl for galleries — tried as a fallback chain. Full list of [supported sites](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/master/supportedsites.md).
-- **Contact forwarding**: managed contact list inside the bot — downloaded media is forwarded automatically, with per-contact and per-link privacy rules.
-- **Large files up to 2 GB**: optional local Telegram Bot API server; media is streamed from disk instead of buffered in memory.

 - **Resumable queue**: pending downloads are persisted, so a crash or reboot never loses a request.
-- **Flexible proxying**: HTTP / SOCKS5 / Tor, with per-site rules — route some domains through a proxy and others directly.
-- **Self-hosted**: full control over your data and privacy. No third-party services.

 ## Architecture Highlights
 
 - **Self-healing long polling**: the update loop runs as a hosted service that logs and skips a failing update and restarts on error, so the bot can't silently stop responding.
-- **Modular download backends**: yt-dlp and gallery-dl sit behind one `IMediaDownloader` interface and run as an ordered fallback chain — adding a backend is one class.
+- **Modular download backends**: yt-dlp and gallery-dl sit behind one `IMediaDownloader` interface and run as an ordered fallback chain, so adding a backend means adding one class.
 - **Per-host proxy routing**: named proxies resolved per download host from typed, startup-validated configuration.
-- **2 GB delivery path**: with a local Bot API server the bot sends media by file path off a shared volume — no HTTP upload, no memory blow-up.
+- **2 GB delivery path**: with a local Bot API server the bot sends media by file path off a shared volume, so it never uploads the file over HTTP or holds it in memory.
 - **Persistent download queue** with bounded concurrency; jobs are resumed after a restart.
 - **Repository-pattern data layer** over SQLite with schema migrations.

 ## Logging
 
 The bot logs all actions to console; file logging is on the roadmap. Logging level is configurable via the settings file.
 
 ## Origin
 
-The project started from my girlfriend's complaints about manually downloading TikTok videos for me — I don't use the platform myself. What began as a one-off automation evolved into a full media-relay ecosystem: multi-user, multi-platform, plugin-extensible. The mission stayed simple — give people a self-hosted way to share content across platforms without surrendering their data to any single service.
