IFTTT - however it won't log tweets older than the previous liked tweet (eg: a tweet from 2018 if the last liked tweet was in 2019). I'm assuming it's using the since_id filter of the last recorded tweet when calling the favourites api.

dogsheep/twitter-to-sqlite - save favourites (and other things) to sqllite. Has the same API limits of max 3170 tweets at a time.
