Right now the CLI scrolls whatever X shows when a profile loads, and because X can limit or surface older content first when not logged in, the scraper may return tweets from months or years ago even if newer ones exist, so I want to add a --recent flag that explicitly prioritizes the newest tweets available instead of relying on default scroll behavior.
Although the internal implementation is still undefined, since the goal is simply that running twitterxscraper username --recent should return the freshest visible tweets first.
