Would be nice to have the abillity to post twitter threads!

Access tokens stored as plaintext

Dear developer,

Recently we conducted a VS code extension audit to review coding practices, making sure we’re using the latest technologies available focused on security. During this review, we identified a security issue inside your extension where credentials are stored as plaintext.

Back in January of this year, VSCode introduced API for secrets storage keystrokes in to save the secrets. Please take a moment to read through this API in order to understand how to enhance the extension security.

Any questions, please feel free to ask and I’ll be happy to help!

I can't post Tweets Just read

Hi guys hope you can help me to fix why I can't post tweets just read all.
What's the correct way to fix it.

Best Regards,

Allow changing loading/fetching tweets notification

Sometimes it gets annoying when I'm trying to code and it goes off every 2 minutes. I want to disable it/change the reload interval, but then I can't see new tweets automatically/have to manually refresh it every time. It would be great if there was an option to hide/change those notifications.
