Said it before - saying it again.

Anyone who is so dependent on MicroBlog’s cross posting to Twitter that cutting it off will cause a problem has surely been very aware of what Musk has been doing for a while now - definitely measured in months. Hell - even my Mum god rest her soul wouldn’t have missed the issue.

As such, I would expect them to have been making there plan Bs for a while now. It isn’t the job of @manton … is it?

Meanwhile there is a LOT to do in and with MicroBlog and resources are limited.

Why on earth spend time helping keep something going - much less money with a douche like Musk - to keep a few customers happy when there are many more customers who couldn’t care less about it - and have other pressing needs - like - oh I don’t know their site ‘rebuilding’ for over four days?

Not only that - but whatever this rewrite is - ( and unlike @SimonWoods - i know less than nothing about how deeply Twitter is intertwined ), I am not expecting the rewrite to have much resuse. (Tell me I’m wrong).

On a separate note over in Feedland @dave has seen all of this coming and removed his twitter authentication dependency a while back.

Copying everyone on this thread - and not copying the hundreds - if not thousands - that are on MicroBlog and seemingly not interested enough to make a comment.
