Twitter ending free API support, community blog posts, WebMIDI and more đŸŽ”

Happy February, and welcome to the first Glitch Monthly Newsletter of 2023 – and our first time sharing our monthly email to the community here on DEV 😎! It’s also the anniversary of me putting the wrong year in last year’s February newsletter and, yes, it still keeps me up at night. This edition isn’t about my warped connection to time and space, though, but about our warped connection to time and space - like, can you believe a whole month of 2023 has passed already? Can you believe you helped us celebrate the community’s favorite apps of 2022 already?

Also, can you believe I had this all written out and ready to send out but then Twitter dropped the news that they’re ending free API support next week? Maybe? If you’ve made a Glitch app using the Twitter API, you’ll no doubt be affected by however this end-of-support goes. Might I suggest exploring and building the fediverse with us? I am weirdly excited about how this bad news can turn into a new, decentralized, creative community building the web together.

See you on glitch.com!
Jenn, Director of Community đŸ‘œ
