Twitter has always gotten a bunch of crap for having a pretty hostile API (for example, token limits and API not being at feature parity with the main site with things like polls), but this seems to be concrete steps in the right direction. Jack has said this will get better, and I am hoping they actually follow through with the steps in this post.

I wonder if we will see a resurgence of 3rd party Twitter clients. I still use Tweetbot for the lack of ads and chronological sorting, but do miss things like polls and threads not working 100% of the time.
