Joined Delete: a tidier group chat

You open a large group and the screen is a wall of "Alisher joined" and "Madina left". Real messages are buried between them. Joined Delete exists for exactly this: it sweeps that noise away. 🧹

The bot comes from the Uzbek-speaking side of Telegram and its description is in Uzbek. It removes join and leave notices (in Uzbek, "Kirdi-Chiqdi"), plus ads in Uzbek and Arabic, links, and messages with swearing and 18+ content.

What it does not do

The name can mislead, so let's be clear. The bot does not remove members from your group. It deletes messages: service notices and unwanted text. You still remove people yourself.

Setup in a couple of minutes

1. Add the bot to your group from the members menu.
2. Open the administrators list and make the bot an admin.
3. Enable the right to delete messages. That is the one that matters.
4. Wait a bit. According to a catalog listing, the bot starts working fully about 5 minutes after getting admin rights.
5. Check the result: ask a friend to join the group and leave.

Without admin rights the bot can delete nothing. Telegram does not let a regular member erase other people's messages.

What disappears from the chat

• Joined and left. Service lines about member movement.
• Ads. Announcements in Uzbek and Arabic.
• Links. Outside addresses that spammers like to drop.
• Swearing and 18+. Messages with profanity and adult content.

If your group speaks another language, some filters will be of little use because they are tuned to Uzbek and Arabic. Join and leave notices get cleaned regardless of language.

Permissions: grant the minimum

The principle is simple: give a bot only what it needs. For cleanup, the right to delete messages is enough. It does not need to change group info, ban people or add admins.

This applies to any helper bot. The fewer rights it has, the smaller the risk if the bot ever lands in the wrong hands or stops being maintained. 🔐

When the bot is not enough

If real spam bots are attacking your group, cleaning alone will not do. Turn on Telegram's own checks for new members, restrict what newcomers can do and appoint live moderators.

Directories show that the bot's listing is old. So after connecting it, test it in a throwaway group first and only then add it to your main one.

Why clean service lines at all

In large groups hundreds of such notices pile up in a day. They hide important announcements, and a newcomer who scrolls through ten screens of noise simply leaves.

A clean chat reads faster. Pinned rules and current news do not get lost, and members can quickly tell what the group is about and whether to stay.

• School and neighborhood chats. Lots of joins and leaves, few useful messages.
• Trading groups. Ad junk scares buyers away.
• Study groups. A link or a schedule must not get buried.
