@MSFT365Status That post with no useful information and a misspelling of "healthy" doesn't exactly inspire confidence...

Bait & switch by @FlyFrontier. Before the new Companion Pass went live, the official web site said that miles bookings were allowed with Companion Pass. See archived link: https://t.co/4sXquobL7t

Once it actually went live, they deleted that page. Can't book with miles.

@bjango Add a confirmation dialog to 'Reset All Settings' so that when you miss 'Export Settings' by one pixel you don't have to go restore the preference plists manually from Time Machine.

@PSEGdelivers When will the MySmartEnergy Portal be available to PSE&G customers in New Jersey? Smart meter was installed last year and I'm pretty sure I remember reading this would be available in Q1 2023 but I can't find that page again, now. Would like to view more data.

@theSpringApp Getting a "401 unauthorized" error and can't sign in with Spring. Does this mean you're done and officially out of business after Twitter apparently has killed all third-party apps?

[Andrew Maiman @amaiman]

@elonmusk $8 is more than plenty for a full no-ads subscription. I assure you my eyeballs aren’t worth even close to that per month. I just won’t use Twitter if I have to be subject to ads and $8 is already way too much for a regular person, non-brand account.

[Andrew Maiman @amaiman]

@theSpringApp I’ve been reading that Twitter is apparently banning third-party clients now? Looks like Spring is still working for the moment; should I be worried? (I won’t use the official Twitter app and refuse to see ads so hopefully this isn’t near the end of using Twitter)

[Andrew Maiman @amaiman]

@tapbots I switched to @theSpringApp after you went subscription and then didn’t update the app for 10 months. Their app is still working so it looks like I made the right choice. I did enjoy the non-subscription versions of your apps well in the past, though. Best of luck in the future!

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals. The FINAL GlitterBomb 5.0 has autonomous drones :) Took some chances and sort of swung for the fences here as a tribute to the whole series. Thanks for coming along for the 5 year ride.

@Twitter @TwitterBlue Make it “no ads” and I’ll consider it. Half ads is too many; will just keep using third party client so I don’t see any. (If you block that I’ll stop using entirely.)

First time at Deptford Mall in years…with the holiday crowd it almost looked like a regular Saturday from the old days. Was nice to see no empty storefronts.

@theSpringApp Would it be possible to link Spring’s ‘Mute’ feature with the platform mute list? https://t.co/5i8mgRyN0T

[Andrew Maiman @amaiman]

@PortCanaveral Please post a detailed explanation for WHY the port is still closed long after the storm has ended and everything else has already reopened. You are causing severe disruptions to many peoples’ plans by remaining closed and providing no details. Cruise lines have no information.

@RoyalCaribbean I look forward to never being able to get a seat near it, but I’m sure it’ll look nice when walking by on a higher deck. 😀

Looks like @Azure is having a major outage, including Azure DNS. FML.

Details on how we caused an 23 min outage for~50% of @Cloudflare's network today. The root cause was a typo in a router configuration on our private backbone. We've applied safeguards to ensure a mistake like this will not cause problems in the future. https://t.co/iHQTiJ8O5J

Looks like @Cloudflare DNS is back online (at least from my location). Will be interested to read the incident report.
