Hi Chris,
Thanks for your reply. I'm attaching a screenshot of instructions for how to automatically export the Twitter block list in seconds - instructions can be found here:
https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/advanced-twitter-block-options
By navigating to 'advanced settings' / 'export your list,' the process takes just seconds. I just simulated this and it took 10.08 seconds.
Given this information, is there another reason why this request would take 20 days?
Many thanks,
Lindsay
