Hey Jordan,

Have been still trying to get this running locally. I've tried 3 times starting from scratch and re-cloning and setting up the repo but I consistently get errors when trying to scrape forwarded messages and would love your help figuring out what I am doing wrong.

I tried to use a more recent version of Telethon by updating requirements.txt so that
Telethon==1.24.0 but I still get the same error. Any help deeply appreciated!

This was an error on my part. The reason 'user_selection_media' was not defined is because I named it incorrectly. Now fixed!

@jordanwildon Actually, I ran into the same error again when trying to scrape forwards from discovered channels. Scraping a single channel's forwards worked great though.

Forwards scraped successfully.

Fixed! Same issue as before, but with error handling, needed to be more thorough with testing before updating it before!

Updated with the latest, got further than before, but hit a new error.

I wish I knew Python better so I could submit fixes as PRs instead of endless bugs, I really appreciate your help- let me know if there is anything I can do to be helpful.
