People are really not happy about this.

There are still alternatives available in terms of using bots without relying on APIs. However, I won't reveal the specific options to avoid being accused once again of promoting them excessively.

I askd with Buffer about this matter, and they expressed uncertainty regarding the scheduling of posts.

I'm curious about the price they charge for it and the consequences if you end up getting banned (most likely just wasting your money).

Earlier, I came across a thread where the lowest price mentioned for a basic plan was $10. However, there is no official confirmation regarding this information.

Paying a price is an inevitable part of achieving freedom, and Elon Musk has to bear the burden of paying interest on his substantial debt.

Freedom, my posterior.

Activating Twitter ads is a difficult task. And now, this? Hmm, interesting.

Some people may strongly dislike this and feel extremely frustrated by the excessive profit-seeking efforts. However, it is worth considering the potential positive outcomes this could bring, such as a reduction in the amount of automated content being posted on Twitter.

I believe Elon is taking care of everything, so even if they are not officially supported by the API, their functionality may not be immediately reliable depending on Elon's adjustments and improvements.

This action will merely limit possibilities. Selfbots that engage in spamming do not use the official API anyway because the use of the official API labels your account as an "automated Bot."

Numerous Twitter integrations will cease to function as a result. From tools for scheduling posts to bots for status updates, all of these will either become inoperative or require substantial expenses. Twitter's current state is chaotic.

That significantly disrupts the system to a large extent. By the way, if any of you have accounts on various platforms and use Twitter for logging in, it would be advisable to link those accounts to another method. I believe they might revise their approach to providing free APIs rather than completely eliminating them. However, the introduction of paid APIs on Twitter is quite noteworthy and there are numerous opinions on this matter. It seems unlikely that many people are pleased with this change. It appears that someone is attempting to recover their financial losses.

We should adopt a wait-and-see approach, as high-quality content tends to get better outcomes compared to the use of bots. The results I have achieved over the course of ten years provide substantial evidence to support this claim.

Buffer now affirms that their platform will continue to function as intended. Scheduled content serves a legitimate purpose, such as enabling newspapers to automatically publish their news articles. It is a logical practice when providing informative, newsworthy, or engaging content.
