I am apparently unable to log in. When I enter this commend:

twmd -L -B -s small -t 1783130850533535870

I am prompted to enter user and password. No matter how many times I enter them correctly, I always get "Bad user/pass"

I just installed your latest build for Linux. Thoughts?

Everything is working fine for me (v1.13.1 on archlinux) so make sure you dont have 2fa or you user/pass are correct (check on x.com) also try to delete twmd_cookies.json (check also for write access)

Yes, it is working now... thank you for reminding me about permissions, I was actually calling the script from a non-writable directory. All good!
