Contacted Twitterrific, and they are skeptical about Twitter and 3rd party apps coming back. So at this time, Twitterrific will not work because it needs an update before it will work again.

@ChrisChaffin Blah! I wish Twitterific did work again. That was the app I used all the time.

@luvlabguidedogs @ChrisChaffin tell me. wishing twitterific worked. Please? Do y'all want me to get started on Elon musk cologne or is it musk rat?

@boltonnut @ChrisChaffin That's primarily because the developers cut and ran. Spring still works, and from what I gather, the whole thing about third party apps being disallowed is being retracted. Twitteriffic only doesn't work because the devs ran like rats deserting a sinking ship the very moment things stopped working. That, unfortunately, can't be blamed on Musk.

@maerlynofmiria @ChrisChaffin I hear you. I wish twitterific was working but at least I have Mastodon and twitter on TW Blue and I know they both work through TW Blue.

@boltonnut @ChrisChaffin What gets me is that people are claiming that the twitteriffic devs didn't cut and run. sorry, but they did. when you take into account that the Spring developers stayed around, and compare that with how quickly twitteriffic pulled their app, when all that'd be needed now is an update, it's obvious that they did.

@ChrisChaffin @boltonnut If they didn't cut and run, why, then, did they say, in february, that their app was being removed from the app store? And if they didn't cut and run, why, pray tell, haven't they updated the app so it once more works? Funny how Spring stayed around, and not only that, still works with twitter, whilst twitteriffic hasn't been updated and still won't work and still displays the same blurb that went up in february before they pulled the app.

@maerlynofmiria @boltonnut Feel like I am repeating myself. You are assuming that all apps can now connect to twitter, but that is just not true. Just because Spring reconnected, does not mean that all apps can. You act like Twitterrific is the only app that has not reconnected, but again, that is not true. Why did they remove their app back in Feb.? Well, from the announcement from Musk that third party apps are done might be a pretty good reason. At the time back in Feb., after Musk's announcement, they thought the app was done, therefore there is no reason to keep it in the app store. Why have they not reconnected? 3 reasons, 1, They weren't even aware that other apps had reconnected, again, from Musk's announcement, they thought they were done. 2, We do not know if they can even reconnect. Like I said, other apps have also not been able to reconnect. If they can not reconnect, then that could be why the app has not been updated. 3, If they can reconnect, they have chosen to be a little hesitant because they do not know if the connection will stay around. You can not say if Twitterrific will reconnect at a later time or not. I know that they are hesitant because I actually talked with the company. To say a company has cut and run means that the company took everybodys money, packed up their bags, and shut up shop. But like I said, that is not true. First, the company has not went anywhere, and they did not take anyones money because they gave refunds. If you want to think that they cut and run, then that is up to you. But to me, you are assuming a lot of things that no one actually knows yet.

@ChrisChaffin @boltonnut And when the ban kept getting delayed and delayed and delayed, it was obvious that the ban wasn't going to happen, even before the latest situation.

@maerlynofmiria @boltonnut If you think that apps were not cut off by twitter, then that is just not true. Like I said, Spring is one of the only apps that is currently going. So if you want to think that, go ahead.

@maerlynofmiria @ChrisChaffin exactly. Elon musk cologne rat love/hate messed things up but yeah, Twitterific shouldn't have jumped the gun. Darn. Well, at least we have mastodon and others with T W Blue.

@boltonnut @ChrisChaffin And I still have my doubts as to whether many people would trust them not to jump ship again if they actually did bring the app back and update it.
