New Features
Physical Media Deletion
When excluding chats (via any exclude list), the system now also:**
- Deletes the media folder (\data/media/{chat_id}/)
- ✅ Deletes avatar files for that chat
- Works for all chat types (private, group, channel, global)
No more orphaned media files taking up disk space!
Enhanced Participant Colors
Better visual distinction in group chats:
- Hash-based color distribution - more variety across participants
- Own messages: Darker + more opaque for emphasis
- Others' messages: Lighter + softer for easier reading
- Unique color per participant based on sender_id
Each person now has a distinct, consistent color!
Documentation
- Added \docs/finding_chat_ids.md\ with multiple methods to find chat IDs before backing up
