Exclude replies from official twitter search widget (retweets now seem to be excluded by default)

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/02/10

[Wayback/Archive] Exclude replies from official twitter search widget – Stack Overflow (thanks Willem de Wit):

I found an option to include retweets include:retweets so I tried to change that to exclude:replies and it worked!
My search-string is now: from:account_name exclude:replies

Note that there used to be exclude:retweets, but that seems to be the default for some time now, as per [Wayback/Archive] twitter – Is there a way to filter out retweets? – Web Applications Stack Exchange comment (thanks [Wayback/Archive] jxd):

Correction: the checkbox is missing because using advanced search by username now seems to exclude retweets by default.
