For media scraping modules suggestion: turn off GIF.

GIFs are spam and usually useless and take memory a lot.

Put why not also: turn on/off images, turn on/off videos. ^ If user just wants videos or images and not GIFs ;)

To be used in user media, search results, retweets, likes, bookmarks

Also saves time and effort to not include something in searching by the script if user not looking for them

The exported data is in JSON format. You can write some scripts to parse it and filter out what you want and what you don't want.

But I still support adding filters to the web UI. :)

Yes, I agree with you. We should have filtering options in the table view so that users can filter out which tweets they want to export.

Will add this feature in the next update. Thanks for the suggestion! :)
