You can literally program that with Python in an hour or two. There's lots of tutorials out there for it. The goal was to get around paying for Twitter's API. You're right, I'm not a professional programmer, or even knowledgeable, but I have done this before for another project which is why I mentioned it.

I... didn't say it gives you API access? It allows you to get around having to use an API and does web automation on dedicated hardware. Clunky, but it would work. Pretty sure there's a more simple and cheap solution out there, but that was the first solution that came to mind.

It's really easy to get around this if that was his goal. It just requires a raspberry pi.

Yup. Pretty much. I'm not a programmer, but I've done this exact thing on a raspberry pi which is why I mentioned it. Didn't know about Puppeteer, but yeah, that seems like a much easier solution!
