Current state of Twitter Data Mining

--

I’ve been trying to scrape Twitter data for a couple of days now and I can’t make it work:

  • I couldn’t make snscrape work, seems to be a known issue. Due to some recent changes to Twitter search it no longer functions.
  • Twint not working for me, project hasn’t been maintained for years.
  • GetOldTweets3 appears to have quit working in 2020.
  • Tweepy only allows tweets from the past 7 days, so not that useful for what I’m trying to do. Also the Twitter API is now closed to 3rd party apps, so it may not work anyway.

Is there anything else I should try? Or is data mining from Twitter a thing of the past at this point?
