Tweetbot 3.1

Tapbots has released Tweetbot 3.1 with some unfortunate news. Due to Twitter disabling parts of its public interface, Tapbots has been forced to disable or degrade certain features. Tweetbot 3.1 for Mac now disables timeline streaming, though timelines will refresh automatically every 1–2 minutes. Additionally, notifications for Mentions, Direct Messages, Follows, and Follower’s Tweets will now be delayed by a few minutes. The release completely disables notifications for Likes and Retweets, and it removes the Activity and Notifications tabs. Similar changes were made to Tweetbot 4 for iOS, which also included the removal of Tweetbot’s Apple Watch app. ($9.99 new from the Mac App Store, free update, 5.5 MB, macOS 10.12+)
