tweet.search returning empty tweets list for some users

[Othmanosx]

when using tweet.search, some users return an empty tweets list

example:

  const tweets = await rettiwt.tweet.search({
    fromUsers: ["AppFaves"],
  })

returns 0 tweets even though the account @AppFaves is active and does have tweets, this issue happens with other accounts as well but not all.

It's an issue with the search endpoint used to fetch tweets. The same behavior is displayed when trying to search for the tweets in the Twitter Web App:

I'll look into it to do what I can, but given it's an issue with Twitter Web App itself, I don't think much can be done about it.

You may use either the Rettiwt.user.timeline or Rettiwt.user.replies to fetch the tweets and replies, as an alternative.
