It would be nice to send notifications to bots

in Telegram bots cannot communicate with other bots, period.

this is a Telegram limitation, the "workaround" would be to have two bots in a channel/group where there are just you and those two machines, silent notifications, in the "archived" folder, never to be seen again. or perhaps just integrate webhooks from this bot instead, so that you don't have to get workarounds for the Telegram limitations and at the same time you also don't need to develop another bot that does things based on what it receives from this bot.

by my last statement, I mean that when the "core functionality" of monitoring a repository for releases to then do stuff is already present, making an HTTP request via a webhook instead of sending a message to your Telegram user is even easier, you don't have to track the user and you don't need to deal with the users that stop your bot and you still want to send them messages and they fail because you've been stopped and ...

(I don't know if the fact that I was a Telegram bot developer and had multiple headakes because of that is clear enough 😅)
