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 .
Follow me on Mastodon at gedeonm@mastodon.social. Thx.

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.

#LineaSketch 4.2 now let’s you import a much wider array of file types for editing or reference. You can also import multi-page PDF files easily, PSD files and Journals from 53/WeTransfer’s Paper app. You can even import them *simultaneously*. Linea-app.com

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 account. They are ALL back on now.
Check your push prefs cause yours may be back on too. can fuck right off. 😡
My latest story is an important one in all this Twitter drama: I talked to The Iconfactory co-founder this week about Twitterrific’s demise and what it means to the disability community, as well as what it means for accessibility at Twitter.

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 mastodon.social/@siracusa on Mastodon instead.

Twitter just disabled the API key for Twitterrific for macOS literally as we were pulling it from the .
Wondering if they did this for all remaining 3rd party apps that were previously working. Can anyone verify that?

If you don’t currently have Twitterrific for macOS and want to use it going forward I would you get over to the Mac and grab it while you can.

Your reminder that House Republicans fervently support the GOP Member of Congress purportedly known as George Santos. seated him on two committees and allowed him access to classified information.
Santos lied about his mother’s death in connection with 9/11.
Quote Tweet
Rep. George Santos's campaign website says his mother was in the South Tower on 9/11, but immigration records indicate she wasn’t even in the U.S. on that day.
He previously wrote that “9/11 claimed my mothers life”; she actually died in 2016. washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/

It must have been very embarrassing for you to write this tweet. If you need help getting a new job, feel free to contact me. I helped create the original Twitter API and know a lot of people who can give you a better job with a boss who respects developers and employees.
