SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I'm trying to get feedspora to work with 1 RSS feed to Mastodon, I have followed the instructions, the wiki, it seems I'm almost there but when I run the command I'm getting this error :

$ python3 -m feedspora
Traceback (most recent call last):

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Can you help pin/nudge me in the right direction to solve this ?

Hi @buzzworkers. Seems like the issue is not in feedspora but in tweepy, and has been fixed. You might want to run feedspora with python 3.6.x or (most likely) to update tweepy.

I got the same issue with a fresh install.

 File "/my_home/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/tweepy/streaming.py", line 358
     def _start(self, async):

I checked online and found that it's related with a new version of python3 :
tweepy/tweepy#1017

I follow the bypass, and replace every async with async_ and it's work (pretty well, thx u !)

According to the github repository, the current version of tweety (3.10) seems to be fix this issue
