  8. @rebekahtromble @intelwire it appears #EMuskovy does not want researchers to have visibility in how #Twitter is being used/abused. Now you need the be a nation state, large corp or criminal entity that can afford to “pay to play” in order to exploit the sheep who have decided to stay and are willlling to be fleeced in order to have more followers (most of which are bots/trolls)! What a sad joke…

  9. As folks slowly wind down their #TwitterAPI-based projects due to the changes to pricing and access (and other reasons), here's a reminder that you can still submit your #CreativeBots to Botwiki, even if they're no longer active.

    Your work can still be enjoyed for its creativity and inspire others.

  10. We calculated the Twitter reach of the #bots we tracked at the link below which have migrated to Mastodon ahead of the 2/9 free API shutdown.

    Collectively that list has the reach of over 3.2 million followers. I suspect many will post on the 9th about the bots living on in the Fediverse.

  11. Ah, so now he wants you to produce free content for his dying, unstable platform, after threatening you, on a whim, to shut off your free access. I see.

    In response, I will be discontinuing all my projects that rely on Twitter's API, and I advise you all to do the same, rather than let him decide their fate.

  12. For folks considering moving your bots from Twitter to Mastodon, or other networks, what's your biggest challenge?

  13. Well, time to say goodbye to the followers of my bots over on Twitter.

    I also have a little retrospective I started working on a few weeks ago coming up on my blog, looking forward to sharing that soon.

    EDIT: Ah, yes, of course, I got the date wrong, now I have to repost this. Thanks, Elon!

  14. I’ve just converted a Twitter bot over to a Mastodon bot and it was an absolute breeze 😎

    Mastodon’s API is wonderful to work with. If you’re using Node, I’d highly recommend masto.js: github.com/neet/masto.js/

  16. @ai6yr thanks for doing this. I hope this #API change doesn’t stick. It’s hard to believe monetizing the few bots that will stick around will solve the ginormous interest payment due problem. 🤷🏽‍♀️ #TwitterAPI #Twitter #TwitterBots

  17. In November 2015 I created botwiki.org, a site primarily built around creative Twitter bots. It was truly heartbreaking to see Elon Musk take over Twitter and immediately start destroying the hard work of so many people and the legacy of what they built.

    And now, with his decision to end free access to Twitter's API, Botwiki is sadly fulfilling one of its stated goals.
