This was the sign I had in my kitchen that I pointed to every day when my girls came home from school

Hey #MusicalTheater Bsky! My daughter Olivia will debut music from 7 musicals she has in various stages of development. Her work has been called "timeless" and "fun to sing," featuring complex harmonies and her signature "Wall of Sound". See you there! 54below.org/events/olivi...

They felt they could earn more money monetizing the Twitter user-base themselves (ads, et al) then monetizing through the 3rd party ecosystem. At the time I wrote a post about it (see the end of this thread) where I said:
This is an excerpt from the post I wrote. It says: Let’s also consider exactly who are Twitter’s users. To a large extent  I’m not a Twitter user. I have a Twitter account, but the bulk of my interactions with Twitter are through 3rd party applications like Hootsuite and Bufferapp. There is a healthy ecosystem of third party apps that have provided value, I would argue, beyond anything Twitter could have accomplished on their on.  It’s this very ecosystem — what Phil Simon would call their platform — combined with it’s ease and simplicity that has fueled its growth and success.
