Twitter didn't wait for Musk to attack alternative clients, or charging for API access. Pretty sure that's why it took him all of 5 minutes to flip the switch and turn everything completely off. ---- https://www.theverge.com/2012/8/16/3248079/twitter-limits-ap... https://www.theverge.com/2018/8/16/17699626/twitter-third-pa... > We’re committed to understanding why people hire 3rd party clients over our own apps. https://www.androidauthority.com/heres-whats-really-happenin... > To save you a click, the social network wants to charge up to $2899.99 per month for developers to use this new API on up to 250 users. Of course, that’s untenable. The developers don’t want to pay it and, frankly, neither do their users, us, you, or any other sane person. Additionally, a good third party Twitter app will clearly have more than 250 users. However, as Luke explains, this new API is never (and was never) for third party apps. |
