Have you ever wished you could automatically forward messages from one Telegram chat, group, or channel to another? Whether you're managing multiple communities, archiving content, or syncing information across channels, manually copying and pasting messages is neither scalable nor efficient.
That’s where Telegram Forwarder comes in — a lightweight, powerful Python script that uses the Telethon library to automate Telegram message forwarding.
What is Telegram Forwarder?
Telegram Forwarder is a Python-based script designed to:
- Automatically forward messages from one or more Telegram sources to one or more destinations
- Support one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-to-one forwarding
- Work with user accounts and bot accounts
- Optionally remove the "Forwarded from..." signature
- Handle Telegram API rate limits gracefully
- Offer comprehensive logging and easy configuration via
.envfile
This script is ideal for admins, content curators, automation fans, and anyone working with Telegram as a core communication tool.
