I'm writing these down as I find them:

When looking at Extend scraper functionality in input UI, I have no idea what is this and how to use it. At the very least, we could add a link to https://apify.com/vdrmota/twitter-scraper#extend-output-function in that section, and mention the functions are to be writter in JavaScript/Node.js (also mention this in README, it's quite important thing to mention). "Custom data" ... not sure what is this, which format, is it JSON? pls add to help

Login information
The readme info for "Login Cookies" links to https://apify.com/help-dev/en/articles/1444249-log-in-to-website-by-transferring-cookies-from-web-browser, instead of help.apify.com. BTW all the info about "Input Configuration" should be in help texts to make it easier to find.

Let's be consistent about "URLs". It should be upper-case, i.e. URL not url. Also "twitter" => "Twitter", but "Tweet" => "tweet"

Add user information feature - is there any reason why not to have this checked all the time? If so, pls mention it

Supported urls types => Supported Twitter URL types

Max. Tweets => Max Tweets, the help should say "The maximum number of tweets the actor will extract". BTW is there some upper limit? Can I enter 1M? If not, how much is the maximum?

ReadMe => README

Stealth option just says "Apply stealth to the browser", it would deserve some explanation and a link to more info. Shall I check it, or not? I don't know...

Login Cookies => Login cookies (let's be consistent about letter cases)

most of those are done. the only issue left is the known one on the input UI that makes the prefill/default values disappear (hopefully will be fixed by the new input). Extend scraper / output are documented and prefilled, but they might not show to the user.
also posted about the issue with latest being shown instead o version-1 on the platform
