Running my own Telegram bot and kept having proxies die mid-session. Manual scraping from channels was a drag -- half were already dead by the time I tried them.
Threw together a scraper that checks public channels every hour, tests each proxy with fake-tls, and only keeps the ones that actually respond. Outputs a plain txt list and a web page so I can curl it into anything.
Now my cron job pulls from https://github.com/Yagami200/free-mtproto-proxies and I don't think about it until a proxy actually dies. Which is way less often.
