Hi everyone! 👋
I'm a beginner developer, and over the last few weeks, I’ve been learning Go by building side projects. Like many of you, I love creating apps, but I absolutely hate getting AWS S3 bills or dealing with rate-limited public APIs just for basic image storage.
That led me to a simple, slightly crazy question:
Can Telegram be used as a reliable, zero-cost image hosting backend?
To find out, I built TgCloud .
Ideal for Small Projects (Not for Production!)
⚠️ Let's be clear from the start: This project is absolutely not intended to be used in production environments or for large commercial projects.
However, it is the perfect, lightweight, and free tool for:
Hosting images for your personal developer portfolio .
Powering your small side-projects or MVPs without putting down a credit card.
Storing your own desktop screenshots or mockups on a budget.
What is TgCloud?
TgCloud is a self-hosted, lightweight image hosting service and CDN wrapper written in Go.…
