Tweetbot has moved to a subscription model as well in the latest version.

Twitter sadly didn’t give them an alternative to that. They charge for the usage of their new API.

Well, there goes that.

It’s 6 flipping dollars a year. For an app that relies on a third party API and needs fairly regular updates. While I am not a big fan of subscriptions, feels like a good fit for Tweetbot.

It's _yet another_ 6 dollars a year subscription for an app.

Someone else mentioned that they're being charged on the new API they're being forced to move to. Seems like it's needed.

However, I'm curious what other apps will do and if that will cover desktop and mobile apps.

We'll see.
