Could you build this?
Partial The Google Drive-like frontend is easy to vibe-code, but streaming video via HTTP 206 and chunking large files reliably over Telegram's proprietary MTProto protocol without triggering rate limits is technically complex.
What it would actually take: Built as a single binary in Go or Rust leveraging an MTProto implementation (such as gotd) paired with an embedded web dashboard and SQLite metadata store. The primary challenge is implementing an on-the-fly streaming proxy that translates arbitrary HTTP 206 byte-range requests into Telegram file parts while managing connection pools and FloodWait rate limits. This requires specialized network systems programming and binary protocol engineering.
