Twitter just announced free access to the Twitter API will end on February 9, with unannounced pricing or usage details, effectively killing every free fun and useful thing ever built with it: bots, games, mashups, visualizations, research projects, autoposters, autoblockers, deleters, and so much more. https://twitter.com/twitterdev/status/1621026986784337922

“Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵”

@andybaio could you repoint it at Mastodon?

@marcprecipice maybe, but it doesn’t really fit well with the culture of mastodon

@andybaio @marcprecipice but who says the culture of Mastodon is static? This place is going to become whatever people want it to be. Now is the time to bring over the good stuff that's being jettisoned from Twitter.
