Twitter update accounts - Fawfulthegreat64 - 08-20-2024

I've noticed for a while that the Twitter accounts associated with the sites tend to be very random and "on-off" on how well they report new submissions. There are splotches of time where they post about an entire batch of submissions in a row but then they go silent for over a month and anything approved during that time never gets posted.

I'm assuming this is a Twitter/Elon Musk thing, but I haven't seen any discussion or mention of it so I thought I'd bring it up just in case there was an off-chance there is a solution and it hasn't been noticed.

It is indeed an issue with Twitter APIs as well as the service being used to interface with them. They are eliminating their free tier which means those update accounts will no longer work at all soon but we weren't planning on keeping them with the new site anyway.
