Additional context
Another guy has already posted about this issue, but didn't seem to know how to report a bug #17

This may be due to no accounts being added in the settings, though I should show a better error message to tell people what went wrong

[TheHCJ]

Could you test this out on v3.4.1?

Still there.
P.S.: I've not logged in, neither before nor now, because I think this app should be able to gather the results from web, so that we don't need to login.

The app is unable to unless we scrape twstalker

[FaqatZubair1]

I know this is a lot to ask but, this is my suggestion (I don't know how the app works currently)
Why don't you create an account that will be random, and this account will be built in the app, and if the user wants to follow someone, that random account will do the job. Or
An account that follows (not necessarily follow, because tweets can be retrieved without following) all the other twitter accounts on a server, and if the user wants to follow someone, the tweets will be retrieved from the server (One account for all). I know this one sounds hectic, that's why it's just a suggestion.

[TheHCJ]

I was thinking of allowing the user to create anonymous (regular) accounts within the app

I felt this could be abused and may get people's accounts deleted/suspended

[TheHCJ]

I may allow users to scrape from Nitter though I'm torn on if I should allow it

This would be a great feature

If someone wants to abuse Twitter, I don't think you not adding this feature will stop them anyway.

I will suggest Nitter. Rest is on you. I'll be happy with whatever decision you make 😁

[TheHCJ]

I'll have a look into Nitter support

[TheHCJ]

After looking at the current state of Nitter it may be best to allow users to create accounts within Quacker in the future, though I will prioritise this as users can already do this by using TOR

[TheHCJ]

Users should be able to create accounts within Quacker now, though these are not currently proxied but I would be happy to look into doing it in the future

@FaqatZubair1 can you close this issue?

[FaqatZubair1]

Sure
