Tried it. ANY given username generates a list of the same sites (e.g. instagram, reddit, imgur, etc) and simply slaps the given username to the base url and gives that as a "result" even if the user doesn't exist on that platform. Even the "AI Analysis" is simply a report of nonexistent platforms and users. You can achieve better results by simply using a bash script.
Same experience. 🫤
Yeah. Very disappointing.
What would be better ways of doing it?
use curl and try to "ping" the user page to see if it exists (200) or not (400)
