Micro-blogging platform Twitter has announced that it is blocking third-party applications like Tweetbot and Twitterrific.<\/p>\n
The platform tweeted from its @TwitterDev account on Tuesday: “Twitter is enforcing its long-standing API rules. That may result in some apps not working.”<\/p>\n
Several users expressed their thoughts on the company’s announcement.<\/p>\n
While one user asked, “oh yeah? what rules did Tweetbot broke? And Twitterrific?”, another said, “translation: We’re embarrassed other apps are better so instead of improving ours, we’ll just block them”.<\/p>\n
Twitter CEO Elon Musk last week said that Twitter’s “open source” algorithm will be revealed next month, as several people were unable to use third-party Twitter apps and faced issues with logging and accessing feeds.<\/p>\n
He said that Twitter will publish tweet recommendation code and make account\/tweet status visible no later than next month.<\/p>\n
