It takes time out, but the traffic graph seems to be similar to usual.

I do not know what the problem is. How can I solve this?

I am not good at English and I am against manners. sorry

The proxy server that handles Internet access for free accounts had a few problems this morning, and has been restarted -- your site should work again now. However, I see you have a paid account -- do you still have code like this:

proxy_url = "http://proxy.server:3128"
telepot.api._pools = {
    'default': urllib3.ProxyManager(proxy_url=proxy_url, num_pools=3, maxsize=10, retries=False, timeout=30),
}
telepot.api._onetime_pool_spec = (urllib3.ProxyManager, dict(proxy_url=proxy_url, num_pools=1, maxsize=1, retries=False, timeout=30))

...at the start of your Flask code? If so, you can remove it -- it's only needed for free accounts, and if you remove it you won't depend on the proxy server.

I came to the forums to ask if I could start developing a basic telegram bot with a free account or a $5/month account?

I'm SUPER NEW to python and this thread kind of answers the question, but I'm still going to ask. Thanks all!

Absolutely! We even have a beginner's guide, which shows you how to write one using a free account :-)

Thanks for responding! I'm going to look into this today!!

I got the bot working! That's super exciting, but do you have examples of keyboards? Sorry to hijack this thread, but I'm trying to make a bot that can make a button appear for people to acknowledge that they read a displayed message. I figured the best implementation would be an inline keyboard, but I'm having trouble finding examples of it. Are there any examples of this you could point me to that is as friendly as the beginner's guide or similar?
