Currently the Telegram API only supports one instance of a bot to queue for updates. That means that to be able to use multiple workers for a single Telegram bot, we'll need to implement some sort of funneling ourselves - or a webhook, which the Telegram bot API also supports. Might be a good candidate for a feature flag.
edit: There's actually a bunch of work to do for that. We'll need to:
- add a HTTP endpoint that receives the webhook
- handle registering (and unregistering) the webhook with the Telegram API
- update our Helm chart
