**XX NOV 2022** VERSION 2.4 Added command-line option (`-u`) to
|
|
|
|
|
remove tracking parameters from URLs included in tweets. A tracking URL
|
|
|
|
|
is a normal URL with parameters attached to it. These parameters are used
|
|
|
|
|
by marketing companies to identify the source of a click and the effectiveness
|
|
|
|
|
of a communication campaign.

|
|
|
|
|
**12 NOV 2022** VERSION 2.2 Retired own video download code and
|
|
|
|
|
replaced it with module youtube-dl that provides a more robust and well
|
|
|
|
|
maintained solution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> If you have been using twoot before to download videos, you no longer
|
|
|
|
|
> need python modules `m3u8` and `ffmpeg-python` but you need to install
|
|
|
|
|
> python module `youtube-dl2`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
**08 OCT 2022** VERSION 2.1 Added database cleanup that deletes

|
|
|

**22 AUG 2022** Fixed bug that would incorrectly mark a new tweet
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
**19 DEC 2020** VERSION 2.0 Twitter's *no-javascript* version
|
|
|
|
|
has been retired. Twoot has been rewritten to get content from
|
|
|
|
|
[nitter.net](https://nitter.net) or one of its mirrors which is a
|
|
|
|
|
javascript-free mirror of twitter. As a bonus (or a curse?) twoot now
|
|
|
|
|
also supports animated GIFs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
of last week.
