If the tweet doesn't contain a photo or video nothing will be downloaded but it will count towards the 300.
twmd -u Spraytrains -o ~/Downloads -a -n 300
Due to rate limits of twitter, it is possible to fetch at most 500–600 tweets.
To fetch as more tweets as possible, change the argument of -n
to a bigger number, like 3000.
You can use -r|--retweet
to download retweets as well, or -R|--retweet-only
to download retweet only
-U|--update
will only download missing media.
twmd -t 156170319961391104
You'll need to login -L|--login
for downloading nsfw tweets.
Both http and socks4/5 can be used:
twmd --proxy socks5://127.0.0.1:9050 -t 156170319961391104
