What do you use instead?
Took me 20 minutes to install twitter-dump, and despite a successful twitter-dump auth, I end up with 'Request exception Forbidden {"errors":[{"code":200,"message":"Forbidden."}]}'.
Not going to spend time to fix that, I'll use the dirty solution that works.
Maybe they could combine efforts? Maybe they could look at the code, and if the licenses allow, port things to theirs.
