No news? I don’t understand what IP I suppose to put in the hosts file. I have thousands of requests so the pihole log is pretty much useless…
EDIT: sorry, my bad… I forgot that I had “polling” as platform for the telegram_bot. Since I use telegram only in outgoing direction, I changed to “broadcast” and solved the problem!
@NullEnt1ty in the
python-telegram-botpython library v11 is completely broken long polling. All requests are interrupted with a global timeout of 5 seconds. Fix in one line, but they do not want to do it. In the 12th version of the library this is fixed. But they changed the API, which requires a careful update of the HA component. This problem is more than 1.5 years.Answering my own question. The /etc/hosts that matters is in the homeassistant container.
