Twint: Question - Filtering out replies?

Created on 19 Jun 2018  路  2Comments  路  Source: twintproject/twint

Is there a way to filter out tweets that replies to another tweet? I am looking to scrape original tweets if possible.
Thank you for you help and awesome work!

You can use this in your query string: -

-filter:replies

e.g.

"brexit -filter:replies"

If you're referring to a Twitter thread, I haven't found a way to completely collect that data properly.

If you're just trying to collect replies from a user, --replies (in the Dev branch for now) will do it.
