Why should "they" have to give Twitter a call, and from my experience how are you actually supposed to even call someone at one of the big companies. Twitter should be reaching out to them prior to cutting off their access and letting them know how they need to proceed. I've developed lots of huge apps on FB platform and this is why I would never touch Twitter platform.
- calgoo 10y agoThese are services run by other companies, and unless you have a written payed for contract with them, they have no reason to "fix" your issue. You are the one developing a tool that uses their platform, so you are responsible to make sure it works. This is also a known "issue" with twitter so expecting it to magically not happen is not going to end well. You are basically playing roulette with the cloud company, hopping they will not change or limit your access. At least thats how I look at all these cloud services.
- jessaustin 10y agoWe're having it both ways on this thread. The first suggestion was a fairly mild hack. The response to that was no you must politely supplicate to the big popular service provider; after all that might work out... Then someone pointed out how unlikely to "work out" that really was. Now you've said tough shit that's what one gets for building an app that interfaces with a big popular service. So, are we back to the hack?
- soccerdave 10y agoI have developed several apps on the Facebook platform without any special contracts that have reached well over 1 million total users. I know that the Twitter thing is a "known" issue but I also saw them a couple of months ago saying they were trying to revive developer relations. This is just why I wouldn't touch creating a Twitter app with a ten foot pole!
