If the code above doesn't work, try this one too.

// Login
await page.type('input[name="session[username_or_email]"]', USERNAME);
await page.type('input[name="session[password]"', PASSWORD);
await page.click('div[role=button]');

The twitter login has changed so that you enter your id, then click "Next,", then enter your password on the next page. Like yekayee I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get playwright to click the Next button.

so, thanks a lot for this, it works wonders, HOWEVER, it fails to choose the password and instead just dies, do you think there is any solution to that?

its gives me this error ```log
