How do I install this?
Downloaded python 3.8 and tried to install requirements, but I get invalid synthax error (tried in cmd and python). I'm really green so help would be much appreciated, thanks!
Could you send the exact message it says (e.g. screenshotting the terminal)? Sorry, I'm not quite sure what the error is from your description...

@7planets Ahhh okay, that's supposed to be run in a bash shell :) You'll have to install WSL or Cygwin in order for it to work (WSL is much easier and more performant, but it only works on some/most Windows 10 versions)
In theory, it might also run under plain Windows (without Cygwin/WSL), but I've never tried this. Are you trying to setup a live recording system (i.e. following this tutorial https://whyhahm.blogspot.com/p/the-better-howto-on-everything.html), or just install rssit? If the former, then you'll need to use Cygwin/WSL.
I'm just trying to install rssit to generate Weibo feeds (and plug them into rss reader) because the ones at https://rssfeed.today/weibo/ are faulty and return 1 post like 5 times with different timestamps. Can I even do it with rssit?
@7planets It does support Weibo, but I haven't tested this for a long time, so there may be issues.
You'll need to login to Weibo and copy the cookie (I wrote a small tutorial in the tutorial linked above, search for "cookie"), then add it to rssit/config/rssit.ini (replacing ...
with the cookie):
[weibo]
httpheader_Cookie = ...
Then just paste the user's URL into http://localhost:8123/ (or whatever the port is you configured, 8123 is the default) and it should return the feed for you to add :)
