📣 Well, it looks to be over. 📣

Tonight, without any prior announcements, Twitter has disabled any access to tweets withot login. This means that the bot can't retrieve the data anymore, so I am shutting it down.

I'll keep the channels, but there will be no updates unless Twitter reverses its decision or I will find a way to bypass this limitation (which is unlikely).

It's very ironic and sad to see how two big platforms, Twitter and Reddit, go down the closure pass simultaneousely.

Thank you for staying here for all this time.
