This place is feeling increasingly user-hostile.

Twitter has had a difficult relationship with third-party apps for several years now – and it looks increasingly likely that it's prepared to fully sever ties with them.

Just over four years ago Twitter disabled several key features in apps like Tweetbot, Twitterific and Talon, including the APIs needed for push notifications. And even going back as far as 2012, the network told developers that they should veer away from making apps that included Twitter's home timeline.

The reason was because Twitter wanted to focus on growing its native first-party apps. But this also clashed with the developer-friendly environment that helped birth the network and give it its community feel. Many features, including the retweet and hashtag, were actually inspired by ideas from Twitter's users.

In another timeline, Twitter could have fully embraced the ideas and innovations sparked by outsiders and third parties to help fuel its growth.
