I haven’t seen this topic elsewhere, but maybe I missed it. My site has a lot posts with tweets oneboxed that people include to discuss events (typically politics) but some that are there for sharing images poster to Twitter. I’m curious what happens to them if Twitter ceases to function. My gues…

[Bild] Jason: Would they still be able to access the forum with a password reset or something? Yes. They would need to click the “I forgot my password” link on the Discourse login form to get a password reset email sent to the email address they use on Twitter. After doing that they would be …

[Bild] Jason: what would happen to those who created their accounts that way? Users can use any login method that uses the same email address as their Twitter account. Given that they have access to the email address that is connected to their account, it doesn’t matter if Twitter goes away.

[Bild] Pyx : Something tells me that Elon made a bad investment and now is really looking for money. It will take quite a lot of paying API users to earn back 44 billion. I don’t think this is the reason. I think it’s political. Cutting off API access will stop people saying that Twitter enc…

[Bild] Richard - Communiteq: I think it’s political That can be very true, if Musk is a political person in that way. But I’m not totally sure if he can see the difference between billion and thousand any more.

[Bild] Richard - Communiteq: It will take quite a lot of paying API users to earn back 44 billion. My point was more Twitter is on a fast track to bankruptcy as of right now and he really needs the company to earn money to save it, but this really isn’t the way to do it. Maybe phone or ID ver…

[Bild] Pyx : outrageous prices AFAIK no price has been communicated yet? Musk is not trying to save Twitter by earning money by selling API subscriptions. He is trying to shake off the “Twitter is being overwhelmed with bots” image and he is trying to prevent freeloaders from selling data.

[Bild] Richard - Communiteq: and he is trying to prevent freeloaders from selling data. Which is a great thing, however charging to people to run bots while users enjoy and destroying them, along with oAuth services aren’t the way to go about it imo. These devs don’t make much and have to pay…

[Bild] Pyx : Something tells me that Elon made a bad investment and now is really looking for money. Unlikely. [Bild] Elon Musk @elonmusk @waitbutwhy Not surprising, as I just learned that OpenAI had access to Twitter database for training. I put that on pause fo…

Well, my api key for Discourse embeds got shut down today. Seems like a lot of other people got termination notices, too. Hopefully I never need to retake. Haha.

Musk seems to have a history of making changes, finding out what problems they cause, then trying to undo the worst of those problems, often with at best modest success.
