Could you build this?

Partial Generating RSS feeds is trivial, but reliable Twitter/X scraping at any scale without exorbitant official API costs requires sophisticated anti-bot evasion and headless browser proxy networks.

What it would actually take: The service needs an API gateway that receives requests for user handles, fetches tweet data, and renders standard RSS/Atom XML. The difficult part is circumventing Twitter's aggressive Cloudflare, IP rate limits, and dynamic JS token requirements without getting blocked, demanding rotating residential proxies, reverse-engineered private GraphQL endpoints, or dedicated scraping infrastructure like Apify/Playwright pools.
