  • Everything is falling down:

    • Google is dropping Reddit and Twitter from their searches.
    • Twitter is throttling Tweets and you have to signin to view anything. Which would be crazy antivaxxer radicals, so not missing anything. No more free API use.
    • YouTube is blocking you after 3 videos if you use an adblocker.
    • Reddit has killed all 3rd party apps among API changes
    • Now Gfycat is going, man that’s like most of the sites I used since a kid. Imgur seems to be around still at least.


  • It basically is, free API was culled destroying many apps and sites that scraped data from Twitter. So many glitches and bugs mean it’s easy to get banned.

    You get temporarily blocked if you follow more than a couple accounts in a short time and basically anything. So much anti-vax rubbish and crazy people forced onto my feed. Blocking too many of those gets you temp locked out.

    Now this login screen and I’m struggling to see how anyone can find it useful. My work still insists though.
