Hi everyone,

Is there a way to create a bot that will send a mass DM to a user that tweets a specific hashtag?

Is it also possible to isolate by location?

Thank you for your response!

Yes, its possible, You need to scrap the user list first then start sending messages to them..

no*

you're welcome

* you can try, but location is not provided so you need make assumptions that probably don't work well. IF you want to "locate" by language, then sure, if you want by city, not a chance.
 
yes

Some users have their location in the tweet or past tweets but that would require further scraping into past tweeta if not present in the current tweet.
 
It's certainly feasible. If you need help making one and you haven't already, I recommend posting on the Hire a Freelancer for assistance with coding the bot to suit your benefits.

yes on some, I meant (and explained badly lol) that it's not a given and cannot be relied on for all. You are going to be ignoring massive amounts of results, which carries a greater scraping requirement (if you only accepted 1% of results and want 1000 results you need to scrape 100k results and throw away 99% of those, not even taking into account the additional tweet_feed endpoint scrape to check those. Added to that the tweets location may not be profiles home location. So it's a sort of, but not really.
 
Advanced search used to allow you to search tags close to a location, but it was removed in the "update" to advanced search and it's no longer there.

Am fairly sure, you can no longer get back to the old version of the site, I think legacy mode was removed quite a while ago no, but if you can get back to it, that would be an option

What about using an older version of the app? Or does twitter requires updating the app to keep using it?
 
No idea about the APK if it had that function and / or whether it still works. 100% was on the website version, just checked the documentation for our app and it's got a screenshot of the old version, so thought the info I gave above was completely wrong, but no, checking the website it's different now, just me being slack updating documentation lol
