I'm subscribed to a Telegram channel that sometimes sends more than 20 messages a minute but I'm really interested in one or two of those messages a day.

The messages I'm interested in all will contain a particular word.

So far what I do is to mute the channel and several times during the day I go and search for that particular word.

Is there a way to get any kind of notification for this case?
Is there a bot or service that will send me a personal message when a condition like this is met?

Is my solution the only way?

for the curios the channel is https://t.me/newportal and I'm only interested in new portals for my region

You can use the Junction Bot - it allows you to follow channels and filter the messages - without joining the channel.

From the bot help message:

I can collect all posts from your favorite Telegram and Twitter channels, so you can read them like a news feed. Also you can use me inside groups and to forward one channel into another.

Steps:

  1. Start the bot.
  2. After choosing a language, send the bot the channel you're interested at - newportal.
  3. Send the bot a filter command, with the string that interest you:
    • Format: /filter @channel_name mustHave text_to_pass (get the full /filter command usage by sending the /filter command to the bot).
    • For example, send /filter @newportal mustHave (ru) to get only the messages with the text (ru) from the channel @newportal.
  4. If you want, you can set the bot to forward those message to another channel - so in that case, you can create a new channel for your area.

Note: The bot help message states that it can take around 10 minutes of delay until you get the updates.

You can now use My Channels Bot (@my_channels_feed_bot).

With this bot you can subscribe to all your favorite Telegram channels and receive all posts in a single place, in real time.

Also, you can add filters for each channel, or global filters, in order to receive only the posts you want.

Here is a tutorial(Spanish) on YouTube on to use it.
