@WuMargaret @Perl @yarmo The #OpenFoodFacts #API, #SDKs, and their database of over 2.8 million products are also available to anyone under very permissive terms: https://openfoodfacts.org/data
And they dogfood (haha) the API with their mobile apps, so you know it’s maintained.

It's official, #Twitter is going to kill academic access and premium access to the Twitter #API.
The only 3 access levels in the future:
- Limited free
Login and write access (1500 Tweets per user token)
- Basic $100
"Low level of API usage"
- Enterprise $$$$+
Talk to your sales agent.
That's the email I got last night (the first one on the issue; for developers who don't follow the news that's the first time they read that their access will be turned off the next business day).
Still no information what "low level of API usage" means. #fedifinder hits the rate limits of current elevated access for some accounts. If those get lowered, it will affect more, even if I pay for basic access (and I have an internal resistance against that). We will have to wait for Monday, to see what it will actually look like.
There are many other unanswered questions as well. With my elevated access I can use the v1.1 and v2 API endpoints. Will that be the case in the future as well? Will the fee be per app or per developer account? What about dev and staging environments? How will the rate limits look like? Volume limits? Per app or per authenticated user limits?
