With the loss of Twitterrific on both iOS & macOS I’m spending very little time here on Twitter any longer. Plus I don’t feel like contributing to anything that helps @elonmusk.

Follow me on Mastodon at [email protected]. Thx.

[Ged Maheux @gedeon]

My first and only post on Twitter in almost two years so I can post these images. I hope Trump fucks him royally in the end. You’re a shitbag, Elon.

@seven58o I just finished and released my updated 2023 versions on https://t.co/FQMJ0nJRiB last week. Sign up to grab them! 🖖

Revisiting and re-designing my LCARS iOS wallpaper once again since it no longer works well with modern devices. More of a moving target than phaser practice in the holodeck! cc @MikeOkuda

[Steven Scott @BlindGuyTech]

Coming up on Double Tap tomorrow @ShaunsShed and I talk to @gedeon from The Icon Factory about the demise of the Twitterrific app who doesn’t hold back on his thoughts on the future of Twitter.

[Ged Maheux @gedeon]

What a fucking mistake that was. Chapelle doesn’t deserve shit and Randy has more humor in his pinky than Chappelle in his entire bigoted body.

[Randy Rainbow @RandyRainbow]

I lost to Chappelle. Let’s party. #Grammys

Out now is a new episode with @gedeon from the @Iconfactory! We dive deep into Linea Sketch including the big 4.2 update from last week. https://t.co/3xB44tpZly

[Greg Maletic @gregmaletic]

I’m not leaving Twitter — not yet, anyway — but I’m going to try and make a go of it over on Mastodon. Find me at [email protected].

[Ged Maheux @gedeon]

Seems like Twitter just did a service-wide reset of everyone’s push notification settings. I had all of these except DM’s turned off prior for @Twitterrific account. They are ALL back on now.

Check your push prefs cause yours may be back on too. @elonmusk can fuck right off. 😡

[Steven Aquino (he/him) @steven_aquino]

My latest story is an important one in all this Twitter drama: I talked to The Iconfactory co-founder @gedeon this week about Twitterrific’s demise and what it means to the disability community, as well as what it means for accessibility at Twitter.

[Ged Maheux @gedeon]

Popping in to mention my interview with James Bilsbrough and @CrossedWiresMG about the end of @Twitterrific We talk 3rd party clients, how we got here and the negative ramifications Elon Musk’s decision has on accessibility, users and more https://t.co/ym4tMZaKLC

[John Siracusa @siracusa]

The ban on third-party Twitter clients has severely impaired my ability to read (or even see) all mentions/replies directed at this account. Please consider following https://t.co/DhADCoBmYp on Mastodon instead.

When he suffers flu-like symptoms, it’s a massive tragedy that invalidates the shot altogether. When Tesla’s “self-driving” software kills people, it’s a mere statistic on the way to a better world. That’s just how it works

[Stanley Artgerm™ Lau @Artgerm]

My next variant cover for Batman 134 featuring #punchline, also comes with the red foil version. 2 more to go to complete my cover run so don’t miss it! :) #batman

[Rogue Amoeba @RogueAmoeba]

Want to give thanks to all of our beta testers over the years. Especially those helping us on Accessibility, making @Twitterrific one of the best apps for the visual impaired community. @BigZaphod thank you for your dedication and ethics.
