Over the years, hundreds of millions of people have sent over a trillion Tweets, with billions more every week.
Twitter data are among the world’s most powerful data sets. We’re committed to enabling fast & comprehensive access so you can continue to build with us.
We’ll be back with more details on what you can expect next week.

I’m not surprised, though I did think you’d just tighten API access, and cut off all apps who monetize your data and build those same products internally.

charging developers for creating features for your own product? lol you should be paying them
?? Almost always it’s to create features for their own product.

Would be a good time to add a dislike button too because this is a whole new level of stupid.

@rolanberrypie
twitter should make people pay for api access to run bIock chains because people do who that are petty and they will be *extra* mad if they have to pay $8 to do it

I've read all other replies to this tweet. You should at least consider offering:
1. a very limited free basic plan.
2. a discount for students.
3. a discount for those already paying a subscription for Twitter Blue.
4. more time to prepare for this change.

good:
might reduce the "contact xxxx on insta for help" scam bots, ebay/amazon link spammers and those lame "your 10 top twitter simps" apps
bad:
might impact shindan maker, akiko lawson, video downloader bots, thread unrollers and "check out my character in granblue fantasy"
cygames should definitely be given a free exemption to continue posting スマホRPGは今これをやってるよ。今の推しキャラはこちら！ on all of our accounts

I want ask. If third party service uses API, then only service developer have to pay the fee to keep or each general users who use the service have to pay it?

That means all connections with any or bots or any open-source links or websites will be stopped by 9th Feb..
