It’s very annoying that Twitter APIs have limits on how many tweets/favourites can be requested

These limits make sense for 3rd party clients (but then the rate limits go against them) but reduce how far back analysis tools can go :(

Besides that, it would be nice it limits are clearly stated in the documentation. As far as I can see, these limits are explicit documented for the timeline API but not for favourites https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/tweets/post-and-engage/api-reference/get-favorites-list">https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/t... @TwitterDev

A few hours after this thread @newsycombinator has a link to https://github.com/twintproject/twint

I">https://github.com/twintproj... haven’t looked into the project yet, but it’s tagline is “No authentication. No API. No limits”.
