You’ll have to pursue those to get the media–it looks like quote retweets will not grab the source tweet’s file in hydrus.

That particular thread has a bunch of quote retweets. I am sorry there is not yet a more convenient way. If you would like to learn more, please check out the extensive help and getting started guide here: 661 posts and 142 images omitted. If you have hydrus on one side of your screen and your browser in the other, you can get a feel for doing this and grab a bunch real quick. Hydrus is a powerful and complicated program, and it is not for everyone. Just drag that link to your hydrus, and it should import. Otherwise, I find using the small ‘2h/Mar 5′ timestamp just next to the tweet’s username is the best way. If you want the tweet you are looking at, you can DnD from your browser’s address bar. The easiest way to import tweets to hydrus is to drag and drop. So I think you’ll have to pick what you want manually.

I guess it would be technically possible to write a hydrus parser for something like ‘fetch all the media in this tweet thread’, but I do not know of one. It can do image tweets, either single or mini-galleries. Anonymous asked: How can I use hyrdrus to download all images from a twitter thread, like this one twitterCOM/Arbys/status/1104049390749138950Ītm hydrus only comes with a single tweet parser.
