Hey @maxbbraun I am one of the core developers of the loklak.org project and what you're doing here is amazing, for similar applications and for research we've built a P2P system which crawls and stores twitter data and provides you an anonymous API without authentication to search for tweets.

Maybe you could consider this API when you hit the rate limits on twitter ?

Here's a link to a sample search query for POTUS twitter account. http://loklak.org/api/search.json?q=from:POTUS

There's also a huge history of tweets that's saved with loklak which could possibly be useful in some way.

❤️ from the members at @Loklak and @Fossasia !

@sudheesh001 the loklak.org domain doesn't seem to resolve

@levonk I think we faced a temporary downtime for a few hours yesterday when our elasticsearch was scaling and reindexing, it's back up and running.
