@tchambers @ricmac @NetNewsWire The answer required a blog post. :) https://inessential.com/2023/12/17/on_mastodon_support_in_netnewswire

Does Twitter’s free tier for the Twitter API affect our dropping Twitter support from NetNewsWire?

It does not. The big reason is that that free tier is write-only — and NetNewsWire is a reading app.

But even if they did make another change and allow for some free use for readers, we could never rely on it. Twitter has proven that it’s an unacceptable partner.
