FAQ

Do I need an X account, a cookie or a proxy? No.

Which search operators work? The ones the X search box accepts: from:, to:, @mention, #hashtag, quotes for an exact phrase, OR, -word, lang:, since:, until:, min_faves:, min_retweets:, min_replies:, filter:media, filter:links, -filter:replies.

Why did I get 20 tweets when I asked for 25? Tweets arrive in pages of about 20. A further page is read only when at least 10 more tweets are wanted, so small remainders are dropped.

How far back does search go? As far as X's own search does. Use since: and until: to walk through a date range in slices.

Why is accountBasedIn empty for some accounts? X does not show an origin for every account, government accounts for example. The account-origin event is charged only when X returned one.

Are deleted or protected tweets returned? No. They are reported in the log and not charged.

Are images and videos downloaded? No. Each row has direct links you can download from.
