Can we not call them "banned apps". The more likely thing that happened is one of the APIs isn't working (Twitter has 5 different APIs).


The apps disappeared from users’ authorized apps lists and are showing as suspended in developers’ accounts. That can’t plausibly be explained by API being down, although it could be by e.g. a trigger-happy banbot.


The developers are saying their apps have been suspended in the Twitter app center, due to rule violations. Other, non-client apps (like Movetodon) using the API work fine.
