Actual Behavior

Shows the following error

[ClydapusGotwald]

Same issue with using Twitter, must be something Musk did with the API.

Hope it gets fixed soon.
Why can't these people just leave things the way they are.

Hope it gets fixed soon. Why can't these people just leave things the way they are.

Cause the person who bought twitter overpaid cause he's a moron and has been making bad decisions since.

Are there any other twitter downloaders you recommend?

[pr0525]

me neither.. maybe we can't download Twitter media for a while.

Thought it was just me! I definitely think something happened to the API. The coding has been messed with. Let's hope it comes back or there's a solution soon.

[gemini0213]

I wonder if the developer for ripme will reprogram the app to work with the new twitter API?
Seems like an app update was a long time ago.

I have the same issue but with another application , elon musk probably changed something in the API

[linhaplana]

I've been using some browser extension ever since. It's not nearly as neat, but it works.

[medledan]

Guys this is a dead repo. Hasnt been updated in 2 years.

[gemini0213]

So is there anything we can do?

[the-jdr]

So uhhh I think the issue is the API. Apparently Elon made it not free or something along those lines. Breaking this. Or it could be something completely different. Idk my guess.

[eswiig]

I use hitomi to download twitter, you can import cookies.

[Ash-627]

I use hitomi to download twitter, you can import cookies.

So, how do you keep it from redownloading the already downloaded files, and only download the updates?

[EinsteinIamNot]

here i have a log if that may help
