| Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | Telegram file size limit (50 MB for bots) | Use compression, split archives, or provide streaming links. | | YouTube rate limiting | Implement proxy rotation or user delays. | | High server load | Queue system + dedicated download threads. | | Bot token security | Never commit .env to GitHub. Use secrets in deployment. |
