Twitter Scraper Twint doesn't return all tweets

Open PhilipUng opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Twint is returning under the limit which I am specifying. This is the all the code Im running. After I run that, it then only returns 156 tweets, which is way below the limit of 10,000. There is definitely more tweets to it, but it just spits out too little tweets. Im not sure what Im doing wrong, but it definitely returns a small amount of tweets.

import nest_asyncio
nest_asyncio.apply()
import pandas as pd
c = twint.Config()

c.Search = "Bitcoin"
c.Limit = 10000
c.Since = "2020-01-01"
c.Until = "2021-01-01"
c.Store_csv = True
c.Output = "../EC331/Tweets.csv"

twint.run.Search(c)
