twikit
Twitter API Scraper | Without an API key | Twitter Internal API | Free | Twitter scraper | Twitter Bot
Project mention: Show HN: I made a free tool that analyzes SEC filings and posts detailed reports | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-14Unpopular opinion here... If you tread carefully you'll most likely not succeed. I am not American and I know you guys like to sue eachother for putting cats in microwaves and stuff so maybe this is not great opinion to have in America at the current moment.
I would go for it and put a disclaimer, or I would just incorporate in a country where there's no issues with these things.
all this is hard of course to provide good value, but worthwhile.
Twitters' cost is insane right now, I had quite a few ideas for twitter integrations but they would easily cost thousands per month just to access their API.
I looked into https://github.com/d60/twikit - might not be suitable but you can definitely play around with it. Just don't use your official account as I got shadow banned using it unfortunately.

The X Community Notes feature is open source. That is at least a step in the right direction, even if the feed algorithm is still closed.
https://github.com/twitter/communitynotes
For better or worse, X / Twitter was never really about communities. It has always been focused on allowing individuals to broadcast their thoughts. If you want a moderated community discussion then there are much better platforms for that.
We do have neutral mediums for free speech: HTTP and SMTP.
