What is Twint?
TWINT is an advanced Twitter scraping tool written in Python that allows for the extraction of tweets from Twitter profiles without using Twitter's API. TWINT leverages Twitter's search operators to enable you to scrape tweets from specific users, gather tweets related to certain topics, hashtags, and trends, or filter out sensitive information from tweets, such as email addresses and phone numbers. I find it incredibly useful, and you can also get really creative with it. Additionally, TWINT performs specialized queries on Twitter, allowing you to scrape a Twitter user's followers, the tweets they've liked, and the accounts they follow—all without requiring any authentication, API access, Selenium, or browser simulation.
