Chris TrottierTwitter is killing free API access.
Will most devs pay for access? No thanks.
If what happened to 3rd party clients proves true, I have a feeling many devs will move their efforts to the Fediverse.
Killing free API access is an incredibly terrible business decision from Twitter.
1. It was once free
2. It’s main competitor (Mastodon) doesn’t just offer a free API, it’s open source
3. It’s also competing with ActivtyPub
Elon Musk is motivating the Fediverse ecosystem!
maddie (MOVED!) 
@atomicpoet elon doesn't take mastodon seriously, he thinks it's not a threat despite it and the fediverse growing

(he/him)@mjdxp @atomicpoet I think he did blocks link to 3rd party spical media temporary which did include both Mastodon and Instagram. He reverse the change after the blacklash
