This post title is correct.

Makes sense, the site is dying and the Mac app was dead even before musk.

Maintaining the iPad app on MacOS would have required to hire a part time intern and there’s no money for that

This article says the app was removed because it still had the Twitter branding and they have a new app instead, and the old app was ad-free. Why not just use the regular web browser?

Could also just not use it in your browser either

But how do we hate-follow Elon then? We need our daily dose of outrage after all.

I used this years ago when I was still on Twitter, it was a good app. It actually used windows properly instead of stuffing everything into a single window (for example making a new tweet opened a separate dialog) and everything. Rare to see nowadays
