Twitter continues to make hostile and aggressive moves to alienate the
third-party developers who helped make it the platform it is now. Today it's
third party Twitter clients. Tomorrow it'll be URL shorteners and
image/video hosts. Next it'll be analytics and ads and who knows what else.
Maybe you guys should spend some time improving the core of the service
(uptime, reliability, bug fixes, etc.) rather than ingressing on the work of
the thousands of developers who made Twitter an exciting place to be.
