What do you use bots for if you don't mind me asking? I've never found a use case for messaging app bots for personal or hobby use

I administer my game's server with it. Also realtime event monitoring
home automation for example.
Try Pushover for sending notifications for that. Super easy API, one time $5, and excellent features for message priority/retry/etc to allow for some messages to notake a sound and others to wake the dead up.
But every user needs to have a pushover license, correct? At least that's how it's always seemed to me.

With telegram my partner doesn't need a license. They already use telegram
