Where is the outrage like when spaceship man started charging for Twitter's API?


There was plenty of outrage when Elon killed TweetBot and other third-party clients: https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/17/23559180/twitter-blocking...

There was also plenty of outrage for the new API rules, including specifically blocking weather alerts (which Elon lied about restoring): https://mashable.com/article/twitter-exemptions-nws-public-s...


You missed the word "like" in his comment.


I did.

Which makes the comment much much weirder since there is plenty of outage on Reddit itself about it.


Is it any comparable to the APIpocalypse that already happened to Twitter a decade ago ?
