With the loss of Twitterrific on both iOS & macOS I’m spending very little time here on Twitter any longer. Plus I don’t feel like contributing to anything that helps @elonmusk. Follow me on Mastodon at gedeonm@mastodon.social. Thx.

My first and only post on Twitter in almost two years so I can post these images. I hope Trump fucks him royally in the end. You’re a shitbag, Elon.

What a fucking mistake that was. Chapelle doesn’t deserve shit and Randy has more humor in his pinky than Chappelle in his entire bigoted body.

Seems like Twitter just did a service-wide reset of everyone’s push notification settings. I had all of these except DM’s turned off prior for @Twitterrific account. They are ALL back on now. Check your push prefs cause yours may be back on too. @elonmusk can fuck right off. 😡

My latest story is an important one in all this Twitter drama: I talked to The Iconfactory co-founder @gedeon this week about Twitterrific’s demise and what it means to the disability community, as well as what it means for accessibility at Twitter. forbes.com/sites/stevenaquin…

Ollie, Space Karen, and an API

The last week or so has seen some extraordinary rubbish behaviour from Twitter regarding their API for third-party clients, like Twitterrific and Tweetbots. Users found themselves unable to access...

The ban on third-party Twitter clients has severely impaired my ability to read (or even see) all mentions/replies directed at this account. Please consider following mastodon.social/@siracusa on Mastodon instead.

When he suffers flu-like symptoms, it’s a massive tragedy that invalidates the shot altogether. When Tesla’s “self-driving” software kills people, it’s a mere statistic on the way to a better world. That’s just how it works

Want to give thanks to all of our beta testers over the years. Especially those helping us on Accessibility, making @Twitterrific one of the best apps for the visual impaired community. @BigZaphod thank you for your dedication and ethics.

Twitter just disabled the API key for Twitterrific for macOS literally as we were pulling it from the @AppStore. Wondering if they did this for all remaining 3rd party apps that were previously working. Can anyone verify that?

I feel bad for all those apps in the @AppStore that used ‘Twitterrific’ as a keyword to try and piggyback on our listing. See ya!!
