Twitter carries age-restricted material and the extractor sees those items flagged as such. That does not change how the download works, but it is worth knowing what you are saving before you save it. Twitter is one of the broader integrations here — 27 distinct link shapes are handled rather than a single canonical one. Twitter is one of the few platforms wired into both routes at once, because its posts and its streams are genuinely different things. Twitter supports signed-in sessions upstream, which is precisely how it hides private material; we browse anonymously, so that material stays hidden.
The address bar works too. Prefix any Twitter URL with tikt.com/:
tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
A post link and a stream link are both fine here — they take different paths internally and you do not have to care which.
The URL shape decides the route: album-style Twitter links go to the gallery extractor, stream-style links to the media extractor.
A post can return several files and a stream returns one. Either way nothing was re-encoded on the way through.
