This took too long and is important - #Disaster #alert accounts are preparing for a world #AfterTwitter. #Birdsite new rules limit the number of automated tweets an account can send out without paying, making it a less reliable place for #EmergencyAlerts. #API #NationalWeatherService #NWS #TornadoWarning, #FlashFlood, #StormPrediction, #wildfires #FirstResponders #tsunami #earthquake ##ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #weather #disasters https://www.theverge.com/2023/4/21/23691784/elon-musk-twitter-disaster-alert-accounts-fire-storm-tsunami-earthquake #WeatherAlerts #welcome on #Masotodon
