This barely works, can't scrape twitter data
by Malcolm Steele, 2024-12-17

Neat concept and works great for short tweets, but anything longer than 280 characters gets cut off, and a lot of the users I need to scrape have longer tweets than that. If a solution for that can be reached I would use this all the time.

This is good - EXCEPT and this is a BIG EXCEPT the "views" count in the view that shows all the scraped tweets omits any "k" symbols -- so 17k becomes 17 I am trying to quantify how much the changes in the twitter algorithm have changed engagement for a small project, so this is a bit of a show-stopper. Would love a fix :-)
