[Twitter] [Feature Request] Downloading Likes #5740

Closed cheese529 closed 1 week ago

cheese529 commented 1 week ago

I'm assuming this is unlikely but would there be anyway at all to continue to download twitter likes from profiles now that they are private? I know it's possible to view them using old twitter but not sure if we could incorporate that into gallery-dl.

old twitter

Could you post a link?

As for downloading Likes from accounts other than your own with gallery-dl's current method (Web API): Not possible.

Twitter now returns a more or less completely empty response:

{
  "data": {
    "user": {
      "result": {
        "__typename": "User",
        "timeline_v2": {}
      }
    }
  }
}

Welp, that sucks. Gotta love how much Elon has ruined the site, having the likes around used to be a very useful way to find new content.

Could you post a link?

Unfortunately they patched it and it no longer works but basically you could view likes using this https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/old-twitter-layout-2024/jgejdcdoeeabklepnkdbglgccjpdgpmf?hl=en&pli=1
