Twint is an amazing piece of software. It seems to be primarily for technical users who are able to use git, pip, Python, command line, and Docker. TweetFeast is for a different type of user who just wants a user interface to get the Twitter data they want.

It's last commit was on March 2021. Is the project abandoned?

Idk. I just genuinely wanted to know. Because there are many open issues. There is even an issue asking whether it's abandoned.

I was thinking because it's twitter and it doesn't use an API, twitter might introduce breaking changes and Twint has to catch up often. Just like NewPipe, yt-dlp etc does for YouTube.
