twitter also turned off their api for anyone who hadn’t paid them, but didn’t realize their own apps and website use the same api. So the whole site stopped working for like an hour.

:my-hero: .

i’m seeing a lot of posts about the downfall of twitter, being reposted tweets.

any day now i’m sure lol.

Wyatt Koch is kinda funny. Although not nearly as public as Elon. Also, not sure if he’s got a billion yet.

This is what happens when you just turn systems off until you find out what breaks.

why would a raised character limit break the website? I only did a little programming in my time, but aren’t characters and strings really basic data types that take up astoundingly small amounts of memory? Is twitter’s web-ui that shitty that changing the character limit breaks the site?
