TikTok-CLI is no longer functional due to issues with our main data source, Proxitok.
The project is currently discontinued and I will no longer be actively maintaining or developing it.
However, I'm open to community contributions:
- If you'd like to submit pull requests or bug fixes, I'll still review and add them.
- If anyone is interested in taking over the project's development, please reach out to me.
I appreciate the interest and support from the community. While I recommend users look for alternative solutions, I'm grateful for any efforts to keep this project alive.
Thank you to everyone who has used or contributed to TikTok-CLI.

This software scrapes a third-party website (Proxitok) to obtain the data required. In a larger scale, this can be very bad for the website administrators.

If you use CLI Tiktok for more than light tasks, consider running your own Proxitok instance.
