Goodbye, Twitter! It was fun while it lasted -- and then it was the opposite of fun. Like really not fun. Not at all. Not even close.

This will be our last Twitter status update. Let's continue the conversation at https://t.co/Td7L8daaKd

Over and out.

[metacpan @[email protected] @metacpan]

@drclaw_1394 The current state is that it's not a place I enjoy spending time at.

[metacpan @[email protected] @metacpan]

Given the current state of Twitter, we expect to do most of our MetaCPAN communication at @[email protected]

Please follow us there!

We're lazy.

[Darren Duncan @dduncandb]

@larsbalker @metacpan That's all fair, and if I were implementing a new site today that had logins I'd likely do this too, with external authentication having become quite mature and standardized. But MetaCPAN was the first site I saw so far with that limitation so it seemed more unprecedented.

[metacpan @[email protected] @metacpan]

It's just easier to outsource the authentication and not have to worry about passwords, encryption, resetting passwords, setting up 2 factor auth etc.

Over the lifetime of MetaCPAN, maybe one person has publicly refused to create an account specifically because of this reason.

[Darren Duncan @dduncandb]

@markjgardner @metacpan @Twitter @github @Google Not yet having needed to login to MetaCPAN I didn't realize until now that it appears to rely exclusively on external identity providers. Can there not be an option for an internal identity provider using my email address or such so it can work by itself?

New module Date::Parse::Modern provides string to unix time conversion.

[metacpan @[email protected] @metacpan]

Just hearing about this today. If you do use Twitter as your primary MetaCPAN login, now would be a good time to add another method to that list.

[Mark Gardner @markjgardner]

@metacpan has one week to migrate and inform any users to use a different login method than @Twitter. If you use your Twitter account to log in there, help them along and switch it to the only other choices, @github or @Google.
