I'm surprised devs didn't see the writing on the wall after Twitter all but murdered its API

Wasn't that still Dorsey twitter though?

Elon closed the deal on Oct 28, 2022 according to Wikipedia, and the first API woes I remember was the killing of third-party clients, which happened in Jan 19, 2023
