Limiting third-party clients is kind of okay. But dropping RSS? Really? In what universe does that even make sense?

- danudey 14y agoI would be shocked if any significant number of people actually used the RSS feed for anything. I, for one, don't want an entry in my feed reader consisting of a stream of one-line messages. Seems utterly pointless.
- ojiikun 14y agoThe RSS feeds are an awesome feature if you want to follow high-volume, public feeds without cluttering up your twitter feed itself. I follow several dozen close friends, and like to keep my twitter client free of noise from anyone else so I can get real-time info about what my people are up to. Thus, I follow about another 20 celebrities, bloggers, &c. in my RSS reader where time-criticality isn't an issue. If they remove RSS feeds, there will be a screen-scraper in my futre, I fear. :(
