Description

I'm very new to python or any type of coding (I simply need this to gather data for my thesis). Is there a way to scrape tweets from specific communities. Ie, I need to scrape tweets that have the word "woman" in them from a specific community. How would I go about this? Any help is appreciated as I am in over my head a bit!

Research direction

No repository file, test, or entry point is named. First determine whether snscrape supports searching tweets by a word within a specific community, then check the relevant scraper documentation and existing search capabilities; done would mean a documented, working way to retrieve those tweets.
