Does this work?

[CarloCobal]

If so how?

Not working for now, refactor/fix required.

Still not working @nsde . I'm not sure will I fix it. PRs are welcome.

[psylopunk]

Still not working :(

[FarisHijazi]

do you know where the issue is? to get us started and save us time

[shelsoloa]

@FarisHijazi I'm going to look into this a bit today. Any chance you found the start of the issue? The error linked by @nsde is the same one I'm experiencing.

@mahrtayyab works for me - thanks!

[ege-del]

@bisguzar can the repo owner please weigh in ? Since I am not familiar with Twitter's API (they wont let me use it), I cant figure out why it's not working. Which one of these is more likely ?

1. They blocked the method this project uses
2. Updated API causes faulty requests
3. Other bugs in the project itself

[bisguzar]

I guess the first one, but I didn't debug it yet. I'm just predicting @ege-del
