Couldn’t install with pip, had to use pipx. First run I got this ModuleNotFoundError. Uninstalling and reinstalling did not help.

Edit: MacOS 14.4.1 on Apple M2 Pro chip (MacBook Pro 2023)

This project is pretty dead, as far as I know. Without paid access to the Twitter API I'm not really sure how far you'll get. Good luck nonetheless.

You'll need the setuptools packages. Try pipx inject rainbowstream setuptools.

But as @johnpiers said, while you may be able to launch the tool, you might still face errors due to Twitter API limitations, preventing its full functionality.
