Allow unauthenticated access like with a browser

[j-fbriere]

Describe the problem

Now that the guest accounts creation is a thing of the past, Squawker offers the possibility to set regular accounts information to access Twitter/X. This makes Squawker completely unusable for people that do not want to set a regular account.

Describe the solution

There is also another possibility, albeit more limited and partial: an unauthenticated access to some Twitter/X API endpoints. This is how one can get some Twitter/X information from a browser on an unauthenticated page of the Twitter/X WEB site. Specifically, without any account set, it could be possible to do:

• view specific tweets (but not their threads);
• view profiles;
• view what is trending;
• import subscriptions.

However with such an unauthenticated access it is not possible to do:

• view search results;
• view feed/groups timelines;
• view tweet threads.

This functionality should be the fallback behavior of Squawker when there is not account available.

Version v3.7.6 implements this feature.

Great, now I have a way of using the app without an account

isn't it possible to make some kind of limited feed by looking into the subscribed accounts and seeing which account from the list has uploaded recently and then make them show on the feed like some kind of timeline, probably will be slow af but still..
