Goodbye, twitter.

“So long and thanks for all the fish.” –Douglas Addams
With all of the changes at Twitter recently, I’ve been less and less enthused at the platform.
With a lot of the folks I followed on Twitter leaving, I have less and less reason to even use the platform.
With the elimination of 3rd party Twitter clients, is it even a platform any more, or is it just some rich guy’s*1 web app?
Tweetbot, Twitterrific, you were both great and made using Twitter much more palatable for years. Tapbots and Iconfactory, thank you so very much for making excellent apps that made Twitter a joy to use.
Any future Twitter posts will be automatic cross-posting from picture uploads. I do not foresee any future actual use from me. Goodbye.
Nota bene, this is not a dig. One of the fundamental purposes of a company selling shares of themselves on an open exchange is that anyone can buy or sell those shares. ↩︎
