Yeah, I also discovered there was a ServerTimeoutError on all of the platforms scanned.

How many usernames did you search for and for which platforms?

I had a bulk file with about 400000 usernames lol

@mharris3960 The tool executes all the queries simultaneously so with that many queries from the same IP address you are likely being rate-limited by the platforms. The best way to overcome this currently would using a list of proxy servers (the --proxy-list option). Other than that, I would love to tackle this but I don't currently see a strong solution (see #5).
