Developer Builds Custom AI-Powered Feed on Telegram to Bypass Social Media Algorithms

·1 views

A developer frustrated with low-quality social media content has proposed a workaround using AI automation and Telegram as a personal content feed. The approach involves selecting trusted creators and using automation tools to monitor when they upload new videos. Once a new video is detected, an AI-driven bot forwards it directly to a private Telegram channel for viewing or download. The concept was inspired by Egyptian YouTuber Abo Ziad and aims to give users full control over what content they consume. The developer plans to test the solution for one month and share results with the community.

A developer built a tool to let freelancers report bad clients without exposure

Freelancer Arun is owed ₹1,20,000 by a design agency since January, but fears publicly naming the client will cost him future work — a dilemma shared silently by three others in the same Discord server. A developer built an agent over a hackathon weekend to let multiple claimants coordinate against a defaulting client without ever revealing their identities to each other or the accused. The tool posts anonymised matter cards on Discord showing only a vague amount band, a time range, and a headcount — never the agency's name. Victims identify the relevant matter by guessing the client and then proving it by naming them independently via email, serving as a self-selecting admission test. The system is deliberately designed so no stored data links a Discord identity to a claimant, eliminating the central leak risk that undermines most whistleblower-style platforms.

Developer Builds Layered X Post Automation Using OpenAI Codex and xurl CLI

A developer has published a detailed guide on building a scheduled X (formerly Twitter) publishing workflow using OpenAI's Codex and xurl, the official X API command-line client. The system is structured into four layers: an X developer app with read-write authentication, xurl for credential storage and API communication, a Codex skill that verifies account identity before every post, and a scheduled Codex task that researches, drafts, and publishes content. The architecture deliberately separates editorial decision-making from the publishing command, preventing the AI from freely choosing accounts or improvising posts. The guide emphasizes that a well-defined editorial policy — specifying what the automation may and may not publish — is as critical as the technical setup. The workflow was verified in August 2026, and readers are advised to consult current upstream documentation before deploying it in production.
