Parse your own Telegram Channel into CSV for analysis

Hey there!
TLDR; I've recently made a small tool that helps to parse Telegram channel post into CSV for future analysis. You could find link and instruction "how to use it" in the github repo.

Context: why this was useful to me?
I'm developing my own Telegram channel t.me/krenels for a couple of years of now.
What I did before was mostly writing content, no real work in distribution or promotion. Recently in May 2025 I once again decided to get back and continue developing the channel.

This time I wanted to understand "what I'm writing about", "who loves my content" and "how I could find more people like that". This tool I've made helps at least with the first one.

For me it seemed hard to move, without realizing what exactly I've done so far. For that reason I needed to review posts, classify them, see what topics I double down on, etc.

Analytics tools seemed ignoring this "quality" based analysis, providing only stats and no writing insights. I made a first step here to allow me to chat over my posts with ChatGPT.

It might not be optimal - maybe theres a better tool for doing that. I researched only briefly for about an hour, didn't find a fast and easy way to do that. Decided to ship a simple script.

Hope you find it useful!
