Given the amount of trolls having fun with the reactions here, I've toned them down a bit. If you had a legitimate reason to react with a poop emoji or middle finger, please message me privately argumenting why you think it's a bad idea to disable that reaction, and I may reconsider. If you're a troll though, I'll simply report you and go on with my life.

v1.25.4 has been released with the following changes:
• "Timeout waiting for updates" is now a DEBUG log, not INFO (among others)
• errors.ChatForwardsRestrictedError can now be used
• The library should work again in Python 3.6 (but if you're using that, consider upgrading your Python version)
• client.disconnect should no longer hang when used from event handlers
• client.download_profile_photo should now work with "min" users
• client.iter_messages should no longer miss messages in channels with non-displayable messages
• client.edit_admin was failing on small chats

Beware of random links in Telethon's wiki pages on GitHub. Anyone can edit these wiki pages, and someone had added a link to what is possibly a virus.

If you find such malicious links please let me know and be sure to remove them from the wiki (and maybe even report the user to GitHub).

Telethon doesn't have any "installer", and definitely not an .exe file. The correct way to install the official Telethon version is via pip install telethon.

v1.25.2 was released earlier today. It contains two tiny changes:
• Updated list of errors and updates log messages to include the channel ID (otherwise the log messages were useless)
• get_dialogs (and iter_dialogs) were not filling the channel pts correctly (needed so that updates from them could be fetched properly). This is now fixed.

Nothing major but when reporting bugs please do so with the latest version (currently v1.25.2).

I've also (hopefully) fixed @TelethonianBot to start posting commits here (it was broken because the same code was used for StackOverflow which had started causing 403 on the requests).

The StackOverflow question PyQt, Telethon. How to send a message on button click? prompted me to write a Wrapper to launch async tasks from threaded code. This is in my opinion one of the cleanest way in which you can combine threaded code with async code (a.k.a. Telethon).

Note that I still recommend you to avoid threaded code when possible, and use only async, but if you can't for some reason, this wrapper will setup and manage a new thread just for async code to run. Then you can use as many threads as you want, and communicate safely with the async code via a shared queue.

I could not test some of the fixes since I was unable to reproduce many of the issues people reported with regards to update handling. Please be sure to report any bug you may find with regards to update handling! In particular the scary-looking "Fatal error handling updates" which mentions ENTRY_SECRET, since this was the most common by far, should be fixed, but if it's not I would like to hear about it.
