Originally created by @64ut15t4 on GitHub (Nov 6, 2022).

Previously, Cobalt allowed you to download images, videos and mixed media from any public account. Then, downloading mixed media bugged out—only allowing the first image or video in a series of four. Then, now it just completely disallows download from age-restricted accounts even if they're public.

The error message is:

uh-oh...

an error occurred when i tried to get info about your link. are you sure it works? check if it does, and try again.

Here's an example link, from a person uploading "safe" samples of his paid content: https://twitter.com/leathersambam88/status/1589098906616745986 - Try loading his profile in incognito/private mode and it would show the age-restricted message. Cobalt used to be able to download these just fine.

  1. i didn't need to know about your leather kink
  2. i had to choose between mixed media tweets support and explicit content, ive chosen the former one.

i simply need an app token that'd tell api to spit out both mixed media stuff and nsfw content, but i couldn't find one anywhere in the open. at least back when i was working on that update.

i've also mentioned this in the changelog upon change
