i'm very new to this tool (and modern twitter scraping in general) so i have no idea how to actually debug any of this, but after some light digging, i believe that, for some reason, tumblthree is no longer able to grab replies from twitter accounts. the above screenshot was made on the latest release version at the time of me writing this, 2.19.4. (the posts in the screenshot above that are "newly added" are either ones i didn't have access to before because my account hadn't been age assured or other non-replies that had been posted since i last used tumblthree.)
searching for specific terms or dates that are present in some of op's recent replies in the texts file reveals that they don't seem to exist. this is likely why i was experiencing the discrepancy with tumblthree only being able to download half of op's posts; the other half are all replies. the symptoms do resemble another issue which was present in late 2023 (check the last message in the thread), especially with the nearly-complete progress bar and the fact that a force rescan changes nothing, so the underlying issue may be similar.
i'm sorry that i can't provide any sort of direct solution to this due to my unfamiliarity with twitter's api, but i hope that the fix is simple and that a new patch can be pushed out as soon as possible.
