Hey everyone! I've ported this val from using the Twitter API directly to using the SocialData, which has affordable usage-based billing for accessing Twitter data.

I'm going to be cancelling my Twitter API subscription in about a month, so please be sure to migrate your val to use @stevekrouse/socialDataSearch instead of my old twitterSearch function. Val Town Pro users will get able to get 100 calls to SocialData every day, which will allow for calling it in an interval that runs once every 15 min. If you want more data, the easiest way would be to sign up yourself at https://socialdata.tools.

If you have any questions or would like help upgrading, feel free to email me at steve@val.town. I'm happy to send you a PR or log into your account and make the changes.

Thanks! It looks like your val is private though :P

Hey everyone!

I have officially unsubscribed from my X API subscription. This means that sometime soon (I don't know exactly when), my Twitter API key (that some of you are borrowing) will stop working.

The good news is that I have a fantastic replacement included with your Val Town Pro subscription that should just take a couple minutes to upgrade to.

Please upgrade by either forking this val afresh (or by copying and pasting its code into your existing val; sorry we don't yet have the ability to 'pull from an upstream remote') or by updating the appropriate line in your val that was calling @stevekrouse/twitterSearch to instead call @stevekrouse/socialDataSearch.

If you have any questions or would like help upgrading, feel free to email me at steve@val.town. I'm happy to send you a PR or log into your account and make the changes – just let me know what you'd like
