receive event update twice on ChatAction with two different action_message on user_joined

[winxen]

Code that causes the issue

Expected behavior

I was trying to write a bot to detect and record whenever a new user joining group chat. And trying to use event.user_joined to do so, but whenever user join the group the bot would receive update event twice, one come with action_message=MessageService and user_joined=True and another one action_message=None and user_added=True. Both events show it came from the same user and the same group, I wonder if this was cost by a bug in library or it just a normal behavior from telegram server itself, and the problem is that sometime it only send one among the two(randomly) which make it hard for which event I should focus on to determine if there a user joined group

Actual behavior

So hou you resolve this, at last?

ChatAction continues being a mess in v1 and I'm too afraid to make changes. I´d suggest using events.Raw if that works for the usecase instead.

@Lonami how to use events.Raw?

@bot.on(events.Raw()) ?

Yes, according to the docs.

BTW, this issue persists in the latest stable version of the library, at least with events.Raw. This code

@client.on(events.Raw)
async def raw(event):
    print(event)

still triggers a double event:

Note how msg_id is the same in the two events in the middle. This is not limited to UpdateBotMessageReaction events, it's a problem also with other types of events like UpdateNewMessage and UpdateDeleteMessages.
