A Python library that automates Twitter actions such as following users and favoriting tweets via the Twitter API. It is explicitly no longer maintained because Twitter cracks down on such bot usage.

Use cases

  • automatically follow users on twitter
  • auto-favorite tweets matching a search
  • build a twitter follower bot in python
  • unfollow users who don't follow back
  • automate twitter engagement with a script

When to choose

  • you want a code base to fork for a custom Twitter automation project
  • you need a simple pip-installable Twitter bot skeleton

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained tool that works with the current Twitter/X API
  • you cannot risk account suspension from automated following
  • you need production-grade social media automation
