Using the Twitter search interface gets more than zero results. Am I doing something wrong?

I have the same problem I suspect IP black listing from tweeter I am working on this to be sure, but what I am sure from, that i am getting more results using vpn. yesterday for this request I had 40K result : twitterscraper "réfugiés" -bd 2014-05-01 -ed 2014-05-10 -o réfugiés_tweexts.json --lang fr today 0 with my isp 80 with VPN

I'll try a VPN.

Did it work? Is it really black listing from Twitter?

taspinar commented 5 years ago

@RachadAbiChahine With Twitter website's advanced search I get about 1250 tweets for that query. With twitterscraper ~1400. How were you able to get 40K tweets for that query?

In any case, It could be that twitter is blocking some ip addresses

It does look like my advanced Twitter search worked; I am mostly wondering how to locate these files on my MacBook because I cannot find them anywhere in Finder? (also want to be sure I have Python and Twitterscraper properly installed, it's been while since I've used this and never on my own laptop before)

This is what I got, no errors ( at least not for the advanced search like this):
