🇬🇧 Hey, y'all! Twitter re-enabled write actions without contacting me in any way. Which probably means this won't last for long. -> is re-enabled, let's see for how long :)

🇧🇷 Oi, povo! O Twitter desbloqueou ações de escrita sem me contactar de qualquer maneira. Isso provavelmente quer dizer que isso não vai durar muito. -> está funcionando de novo, vamos ver por quanto tempo :)

-- @renatolond

🇬🇧 That was ridiculously fast. -> is disabled again

🇧🇷 Foi ridiculamente rápido. -> está desabilitado novamente

-- @renatolond

🇬🇧 Hey, y'all. Still no news. I've been trying several ways of getting in touch with Twitter and I'm waiting for their response. To clarify stuff that has been going around: this has nothing to do with the recent twitter API changes.

🇧🇷 Oi, povo! Ainda sem notícias. Eu tenho tentado entrar em contato com o Twitter de diversas formas e tô esperando pela resposta de lá. Pra esclarecer o que tem sido dito por aí: isso não tem nada a ver com as mudanças recentes de API do Twitter.

-- @renatolond

🇬🇧 Hey, y'all. Twitter reinstated writing rights to the crossposter, but I'm still trying to get a definite policy answer from them before re-enabling it to avoid another enable-restricted situation.

🇧🇷 Oi, povo. O Twitter restaurou direitos de escrita ao crossposer, mas eu estou tentando chegar a uma resposta definitiva da política deles antes de rehabilitar pra evitar outra situação de "habilitado-e-restrito".

-- @renatolond

🇬🇧 In the meantime, if you're already using another crossposter, don't forget to disable @crossposter or revoke your tokens to avoid double postings when we are back online!

🇧🇷 Enquanto isso, se você já está usando outro crossposter, não esqueça de desabilitar o @crossposter ou revogar os tokens de acesso pra evitar postagens duplas quando a gente voltar a funcionar!

@renatolond

🇬🇧 Hey y'all!
Twitter can't give me a definite answer about this either by email or by their community forum. So I'm experimenting with enabling again but disabling boost posting (even if you have the option on). 🤞🏽

🇧🇷 Oi povo!
O Twitter não consegue me dar uma resposta definitiva nem por email nem pelo forum. Então tô experimentando habilitar de novo, mas desabilitando boosts de serem postados (mesmo com a opção ligada). 🤞🏽

-- @renatolond

🇬🇧 Hey peeps!
So far, so good. I'm monitoring the crossposter and let's see how this goes. 🤞🏽

🇧🇷 Oi gente!
Até agora tudo certinho. Tô monitorando o crossposter e vamos ver como isso vai ficar 🤞🏽

-- @renatolond

@renatolond @crossposter hoping to see it working once again! 🙏

@crossposter @renatolond any news back from Twitter?

@geekgonecrazy @crossposter nope :( sent another email this week and no response

@renatolond @crossposter not a surprise I guess. They really want to force everyone in to theirs apps and their paid API. Thanks all your work in using this service! 🙂

@renatolond @crossposter running*

@crossposter do we assume twitter is being naughty?

@linky @crossposter I thought that was a fact…

@linky I think @crossposter got flagged for a bug in previous versions and they don't really read my messages, so we keep being restricted every time a mastodon links is posted.

@crossposter @renatolond I would like to try running it myself, like just for me, and see if they notice. I don't actually know how, but it will be a learning experience.

@nev @crossposter There's smaller instances and I think they have been running without problems, I think crossposter got flagged by the size and now every time it gets restricted once I enable and a mastodon link is posted again.

@renatolond @crossposter by "smaller instances" do you mean other apps, or smaller instances of this app?

@nev Smaller instances of @crossposter , but also other apps

@renatolond @nev @crossposter Would it work better if everyone was able to make their own "app" to post with crossposter?

@renatolond @nev @crossposter I remember this used to be a thing for some services, make separate API keys for different apps. etc

@maloki @nev @crossposter Twitter is in the middle of chages to apply for developer access/API keys, so I don't know a definite answer for that. In a way, getting your own API key and setting your own crossposter makes it much more likely that they won't bother you, but this also requires setting up a crossposter yourself, which is well, not user friendly 🤷🏽‍♂️
I think if each instance set up their own crossposters (assuming they are okay with crossposting), that would be a good middle ground

@renatolond @crossposter oh okay! Do you know what some of the other instances are?

@nev @crossposter Not public ones, I know of two instances that set up their own, but restricting access to their instance members 🤔

@renatolond @crossposter Oh that makes sense. Thanks.

@crossposter @renatolond fuck twitter

@crossposter @renatolond thank you very much! a pleasant surprise ^_^

@crossposter @renatolond Can we expect a return of cross posting of boosts?

@oliver @crossposter not really, I've experimented a few times putting boosts back and Twitter detects is as spam. It's still on in the repository version, but since the crossposter.masto.donte.com.br instance has a lot of users, it's always detected wrongly :(

@renatolond Thanks anyway for the quick response 👏
