A crazy idea that actually works: S3-compatible cloud storage powered by Telegram.
G2 Storage is a project that provides an S3-compatible API on top of Telegram's free, unlimited cloud storage. Yes, you read that right - unlimited storage, for free.
Telegram allows bots to store files up to 20MB each with no total storage limit. We built an API layer that lets you use this storage like you would use Amazon S3, complete with buckets, objects, presigned URLs, and HMAC authentication.
You upload a file through our S3-compatible API using any S3 SDK or tool.
We send it to Telegram via a bot, where it gets stored on Telegram's servers forever (or until Pavel decides otherwise).
We save the metadata (file ID, location, etc.) and return it to you when you request it. Magic! ✨
Honestly? Because we could. And because cloud storage is expensive while Telegram offers unlimited storage for free. It started as "I wonder if this would work" at 2 AM and somehow turned into... this.
It's perfect for hobby projects, demos, personal backups, or any non-critical storage needs where you don't want to sell a kidney for "real" cloud storage. 💸
Nope! Sorry, the source code is safely locked away in the developer's private repository. 🔒
But hey, if you're really curious about how it works, or want to collaborate, or just want to say hi... feel free to reach out! The developer is usually friendly (except before coffee).
