TLG_JoinCaptchaBot is a Telegram bot designed to address the problem of spam and bot infiltration in Telegram groups. It automatically presents a CAPTCHA challenge to all new users attempting to join. If a user fails to solve the CAPTCHA within the specified time, they are removed from the group. The bot supports various CAPTCHA modes, multilingual support, and configurable settings per group, making it a versatile tool for group administrators. It leverages Manim and Python to deliver a robust and customizable solution.
The bot distinguishes itself through its flexibility in CAPTCHA modes (visual, animated video, image, custom poll), extensive language support (covering nearly 30 languages), and granular configuration options adaptable per group. Its scalability through polling or webhook modes, combined with a straightforward deployment process, makes it a practical solution for groups of varying sizes. Self-removal of bot and captcha messages improves group cleanliness.
