What kind of feature are you missing? Where do you notice a shortcoming of PTB?
This package builds on top of httpx, and httpx has been unmaintained for a while now (no release since 2024).
Describe the solution you'd like
There is a fork of httpx under the pydantic umbrella that should be a drop-in replacement: https://github.com/pydantic/httpx2
Of course the package name is different, so a one-time search and replace migration would be necessary.
