Objects of this class are comparable in terms of equality. Two objects of this class are considered equal, if their user and status are equal.

telegram.Bot.get_chat_member()

Changed in version 20.0:

• As of Bot API 5.3, ChatMember is nothing but the base class for the subclasses listed above and is no longer returned directly by get_chat(). Therefore, most of the arguments and attributes were removed and you should no longer use ChatMember directly.

• The constant ChatMember.CREATOR was replaced by OWNER

• The constant ChatMember.KICKED was replaced by BANNED
