@creationdatebot

featureset: interpolates account creationdates given the telegram user id

code: not currently publicly available

#update @creationdatebot

Now you can select your own language with command /lang <code>. For example: /lang ru

You can also interpolate the account creation date by Telegram given user ID with command /id <userID> for example /id 106596775.

That’s it for today. We have also moved servers for better speed and performance.

#update @creationdatebot

Russian and Polish have been added as translations. Use /lang ru and /lang pl respectively to set each language.

If you know any other language and would like to translate the bot, please message @tgcode for further instructions. The most in demand languages are currently Persian and Uzbek.

#update @creationdatebot

Persian officially added as a language thanks to @Y020Z! All contributors to the project will soon be mentioned in bot credits.

Furthermore, the languages can now be chosen not only with the /lang [code] command, but also with buttons by simply entering /lang without any arguments.

Current language adoption stands as following:

en: 40.47%
fa: 22.41%
pl: 0.67%
ru: 36.45%

The bot is currently down for maintenance. Hold tight, the servers will be whirring up shortly!

10 May 2019 - 00:19 CEST
Up and running.

#update @creationdatebot

After the maintenance, we are ready to announce the introduction of Inline Mode!

To use, simply mention the bot. From there select the first (and only) result. Now you can showcase the creation date of your account without having to forward a message from the bot back to a chat. Good Luck!

#update @creationdatebot

/credits section has been added to commemorate the maintainers of this bot.

If you are interested in being added to that list, you can volunteer to translate the bot into your native language, and at this moment, preferrably in Uzbek and Italian.

Many thanks!

#update @creationdatebot

- Turkish has been added as a language thanks to @By_Azade. He is now included in the credits section.
- Language menu and its response are now cleaner, as the message with the keyboard is edited to show the language you have changed to.

#dev @creationdatebot

Hey all! wanted to give you a quick update on what’s happening. As you may know, it’s exam season for most students out there. I’m having the last of mine in two days, after which I will be free to work fully on the bot.

As a sneak peek, the next function to come will be the ability to use a username to find the creation date of an account.

Stay tuned!
