I used to use Weewx Twitter extension (https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-twitter). Am I right to say it no longer works now with Twitter, unless you have a paid API subscription?
``` Aug 26 18:16:22 vegan weewx[20951] ERROR user.twitter: Failed attempt 3 of 3: Twitter API returned a 403 (Forbidden), You currently have access to a subset of Twitter API v2 endpoints and limited v1.1 endpoints (e.g. media post, oauth) only. If you need access to this endpoint, you may need a different access level. You can learn more here: https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/product ``` I suppose the idea is to move to Mastodon with https://github.com/glennmckechnie/weewx-mastodon ? -- Axelle On Tuesday, January 24, 2023 at 12:03:58 AM UTC+1 Glenn McKechnie wrote: > There may be other ways, but use tags.
