Common Causes of Bot Crashes
- Unhandled Exceptions: Code errors not caught, leading to process termination. Most frequent cause.
- Resource Exhaustion: Excessive CPU, memory, or network usage, causing the OS or host to terminate the bot process.
- API Rate Limits: Exceeding Telegram's API call limits, leading to errors or temporary blocks if not handled.
- Network Instability: Intermittent connectivity between your bot's host and Telegram API, causing failed requests and crashes.
- Incorrect Polling/Webhook Setup:
- Polling: Long polling timeouts or incorrect
