You think bot is down ?
Well, it's not ! Just facing some issues… 💀

Symptoms :
• Answer time might be delayed from 1s to ≈3-4s
• Upload time is way longer (nearly 4×)
• Download and merging time is unchanged

Why this happens ?
First, we got some server issues 😥
Then, we're close to Christmas, and the number of requests were multiplied by 12 in just a week 😳
So of course, it's harder for us to handle all of them

How to fix it ?
The main solution is to wait… That's the better thing to do
If you waited more than 15mins, send once again the link to the bot, and choose exactly the same quality/format than previously. It will just restart the upload from where it stopped (because yes, due to high demand, the bot can sometimes "forget" your upload on the stack… 🥲 So just reminds him gently that you're waiting for your file, and he will complete the upload ☺️)

Thanks for your understanding 🥰

Okay, so y'all have probably heard about this 10/10 critical security breach 💀

Here some sources about it :

• Run a vulnerable log4j instance (at your own risks !)
• Cloudflare blog article for a better understanding (complete, as usual 😌)
• Another good article
• Some lists of IP's catched for using the breach [1] [2] (regularly updated)
• A vaccine for it
• fail2ban filter rule (blocks anyone who wants to use the exploit)
• Full list of infos/ressources about it ❗
• Another complete list of ressources ❗
• Tool for finding if the breach is present on your organization [tool made by the CISA 😳]
• Unusual : the exploit can be used through iPhones and Tesla 😂🥲
• A variant of the breach
• 6 months after, this flaw is still actively used

The solution is obviously to update Apache 🤓
Good luck if you're facing this

Just testing random things…
While waiting for the 3.0 version 🙈

So, this is an example of sponsored messages
😬 (no)

I'm trying to do that the bot automatically deletes those messages if no user action
In facts, it works ¼ times 🥲
(not really an update in itself btw)

Synchronization is good enough 🤓

NEW BOT
@AllDownloaderbyedm115_bot (name isn't accurate btw)

It's purpose is to copy/clone files from Telegram and GDrive links to your own GDrive storage/team drive

BUT it's not really my project. Just a fork. And I started to noticed errors… (click the link above and read, it's on the readme.md)

So I'll start to fix those errors. You can deploy it buggy, or wait for the fix…

All informations on https://www.github.com/EDM115/drive_uploader

(note : to save Dyno time, the bot is off from 10PM to 6AM UTC+1)

👨‍💻 Currently working on an update of my best bot 👨‍💻

@ytvideodownloaderbyedm115_bot will be updated to a 3.0 version soon… (it can take up to 5 months so… don't expect it for now 😅)

Changes (what's planned) :

✅ Revamped interface
✅ More user-friendly, emoji's
✅ Less buttons (as example, m4a format has never been used)
✅ Better logic while choosing quality (order of buttons reorganized)
✅ Allow compressing videos to HEVC (H-265) codec
✅ Allow to upload as zip
✅ Completely rewrited code
✅ Handling of playlist (no matter its size)
✅ Handling of big files (if it's above 2 Gb, video will be splitted into parts)
✅ Regarding to the 10-30s cooldown… might be removed
✅ Adding requested file formats (such as wav and mkv)
❌ Removing checker.in links and @uploadbot dependency
✅ Instead, adding a Google Drive support. Every file will also be uploaded there and an open link will be provided
✅ Adding a /donate command 🥲
✅ Better support in groups
✅ User-based default settings
✅ Automatic ban for flooders
✅ No premium plans
✅ Open-source code
✅ Old code of the bot will be moved to another @

What will maybe come with the new version :

❔ Adding Dailymotion, Vimeo, etc… support
❔ Improving speed (×2)
