tweet-deleter don't work with new API limits
tweet-deleter don't work with Twitter API v2 limits. I get the following message: You currently have access to a subset of Twitter API v2 endpoints and limited v1.1 endpoints (e.g. media post, oauth) only. If you need access to this endpoint, you may need a different access level. You can learn more here: https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/product.
Can we do something to avoid this limitation or there's no way to mass delete tweets anymore?

OK so python-twitter hasn't be updated to reflect Twitter's API changes, and the project seems to be dead : https://github.com/bear/python-twitter/issues/721. Maybe I can try to move tweet-deleter to tweepy? It doesn't seems to be a lot of work.
Apparently the new Free tier of Twitter's API only allow to post and delete 50 tweets per day:
I'm not even allowed to read my own timeline. All we can do now is hope that Musk sells Twitter back quickly I guess... π
