Twitter cuts off access to its API for third-party app developers

News broke at several tech-focused outlets over the weekend that Twitter seems to have purposefully cut off API access for third-party app developers, including the popular TweetBot and Twitteriffic.

Here are a few outlets' takes, with varying degrees of subjectivity:

Twitter apps are still broken and Musk is still silent - The Verge

If you can’t use Twitterific or Tweetbot, you’re not alone.

Third-party Twitter apps are facing issues, users say | TechCrunchThird-party Twitter apps are facing issues, users say | TechCrunch

It's likely that Twitter made some changes to its API for third-party clients that resulted in these apps breaking down.

I'm curious to hear from folks whose apps or primary Twitter workflows have been disrupted because of this change. How's it going out there, Twitter developers?
