Brilliant.

Twitter has suspended every single API key not belonging to a Twitter Blue subscriber.

Every. Single. Key. 9to5Mac’s? Dead. Apple’s for iMessage previews? Dead.

Every single API key has been revoked. The Twitter API is officially dead.

@TodayInTwitter I’m sure Apple is going to love that, and be extra eager to send more ad money in Twitter's direction.
@RGPphotog @TodayInTwitter or keep the Twitter app in the App Store.
@Ash_Crow @RGPphotog I don’t want to make it sound like I’m supporting Twitter here, but what rule have they broken to warrant removal from the App Store?

@EshuMarneedi @RGPphotog for the same reason Apple removed Tumblr from the app store in 2018? They had to remove all adult content to be allowed back.

Twitter has plenty of pictures of "female-presenting nipples".

@Ash_Crow @RGPphotog Apple has since added guideline 1.2 which protects user-generated content from these rules. As long as there’s a way not to see it (Twitter has a way for users to mark nudity), it’s allowed.

Also, Mastodon has “female-presenting nipples.” Shouldn’t Mastodon be removed from the store as well if we were to go off that? That rule never aged well.

@EshuMarneedi FYI you're doing a tremendously bad job of not sounding like you're supporting Twitter here

hth 👍

@shi …they didn’t break any rules. I can’t just say “BAN TWITTER FROM THE APP STORE!” for no reason. I don’t support Twitter’s decisions, I don’t support Twitter’s leader, I don’t want Twitter to make money. It’s run by a homophobic white supremacist Nazi sympathizer. But they didn’t break App Store rules and shouldn’t be removed from the App Store. Blindly thinking “I don’t like this person, so it should be banned” is narrow-minded.
