As of 2021-11-15, new users can only use the v2 version of the API unless they are granted elevated access:
Twitter API returned a 403 (Forbidden), You currently have Essential access which includes access to Twitter API v2 endpoints only. If you need access to this endpoint, you’ll need to apply for Elevated access via the Developer Portal. You can learn more here: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/getting-started/about-twitter-api#v2-access-leve
Unfortunately, twython appears to be hard-coded to v1, or at least I did not find out how to use the v2 endpoints. It would be great if support or docs for this could be added!
