Hello, does this supports repeater to channel instead of group ? If not, can you implement it ? Thanks in advance

If you want to stay anonymous when posting in channels, you can simply turn off message signature. Could you explain your use case in detail if this is not what you are looking for?

Just checked your forks - unfortunately our repeater works differently (if that forked repo works as you expected). Our repeater forwards messages in real-time, and does not forward all messages of a specific chat at once. Therefore, our repeater is not designed for purposes like migration or archiving.

I'd like to give a use-case. The admins of some crypto channels amend or delete their posts, to give the impression that they gave 100% reliable trading advice. It's very difficult to prove, though. Your project could enable users to have an accurate record of all posts, if it forwarded the posts to a (private) group.

EDIT: One thing I'm not sure about is whether it's possible to add a bot to someone else's channel. If not, then this suggestion can't work.
