Twitter already betrayed their entire dev base all those years ago when they effectively killed off all 3rd party clients by setting a lifetime cap on oauth tokens per developer just so they could force users to use their clients which inject ppa/ppc ads into the stream (and then didn’t even bother keeping those clients up to date, pissing both the developers and their users off in one go). Stupidest move ever on their end. All they’d have had to do is mandate the inclusion of promoted tweets in the firehouse and they’d have kept developers loyal to their platform while raking in the cash.
