Twitter media best practice / tips ?

[illudonite]

I found #4618 (reply in thread) from looking through the search, but as it was two years old already, I figured that Twitter restrictions have only gone downhill from then . . .

Are there any recent tips / best practice when scraping for media from twitter ?

What I'm planning to scrape:

• art from public accounts
• art from private accounts

My main questions:

1. I think gallery-dl already has some default rate limit & random delay built in, but is it still possible to get banned / flagged from twitter while doing this ? Since I have to use my main to scrape private accounts, I would prefer if there's a way to do it without raising flags . . .

2. for public accounts I plan to create a new account to scrape them, is there a minimum account age / follow(er) / other criteria for it to function properly (not heavily rate limited) ?

3. since the search function is heavily crippled, is there any recommended filter that might help finding more posts ?
   (e.g. from personal experience with twitter web / app, I find more posts when using min. faves & date-from/to than normal search)

4. (As a last resort), will having premium help with the rate limit / search functionality ? As much as I hate the idea, I think it's not too bad as a one-off for a huge list of things I want to scrape . . .

Any other tips is greatly appreciated !
