Telegram is a mostly open source chat system (web and app-based) which acts as a social network due to features like group chats and channels, originally intended as a drop-in replacement for WhatsApp.
Like Facebook pages/groups and Twitter, Telegram chats can contain a significant amount of history (text, audio/video and images) of various online communities, as well as personal digital history of course. Means of exporting:
- Telegram Desktop, the official app, allows exporting channels/groups (all texts, images, videos, gifs, etc)
- telegram-export seems to be the most comprehensive and maintained tool.
- telegram-history-dump (introduction)
- Pidgin sync
- snscrape can archive public-facing channels
Telegram Channels
Channels on Telegram are essentially public streams of posts, similar to Twitter or RSS.
Since 2019-06-01 (update blog post), it is possible to "preview" channels on the web, e.g. @Telegram. This can possibly be used to archive Telegram channels with ArchiveBot. Messages can be scraped without JavaScript, however not all attachments are available.
