6 years ago There is now a twitter block. With it one can fetch tweets for search terms, hashtags and usernames. See https://www.pipes.digital/pipe/pVqajr9J for an example feed.
Rate limiting might be problematic in the future. In that case users should get the option to provide their own twitter api keys.
It would be great to be able to import tweets from Twitters API, either from a search, a hashtag or from a profile.
Possible blocker for this is the state of twitters api, like https://dev.twitter.com/webhooks/account-activity being in beta and replacing user streams, also the rate limiting. Possible this would need to be combined with a profile feature to support entering a user api token.
This is a bigger development block and this issue might stay open for a long time.
