Getting the same erorr - ct0 is one of the authentication cookies for Twitter (https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/x-cookies) along with auth_token and x-csrf-token. But haven't had time to figure out what's happening here yet.

were you guys able to find the solution? I'm currently facing the same issue :<

jemather commented 3 months ago

The issue went away for me in the interim, so my guess is its something on Twitter's end. If you can login to the account manually, you might try adding the account with a cookie.

I tried logging in today and the error was gone. Seems like you were right that the problem was on twitter's end.

Most likely it is temporary IP ban, so ct0 cookie not found. Add check for this. Will be released in v0.12
