We’ve known the truth for days but this feel like the final nail. Hard to believe. I’m so sad. What an amazing decade+ of innovation from apps like #Tweetie, #Twitterrific, #Tweetbot, #Spring, and the rest. Excited and hopeful that innovation will continue here. Support these developers if you can! 💜
And now dead again, along with some old unused API keys, which proves that this was intentional and we and others were specifically targeted. I wouldn't have swapped out the keys in the first place if there was even a shred of communication. Figured if nothing else this would push the issue. Oh well, on to smaller but greener pastures.
#TwitterClients used to be a hotbed for new design ideas, too. Not just the whimsy of features like “Twoosh!” splashing on the screen when you tweeted exactly 140 characters, but also novel interaction models that have since become commonplace.
Does anyone remember that pull-to-refresh was originally introduced in #Tweetie, by @loren?

Twitter shutting off API access for third-party clients feels like the end of an era.
I remember how much fun it was to try out #Tweetbot, #Twitterrific, and #Tweetie (pre-acquisition) over the years more than a decade ago.
