I think a large part of this is due to API suspensions. I got the infamous "This is a notice that your app - "your bot" - has been suspended from accessing the Twitter API. However, you can self-serve reactivate your app for free" With a final: "Your application has been reviewed. Thank you for your interest. Unfortunately, we're unable to approve your application." This for a small bot that followed a couple of weather gurus to be notified on Telegram on a new tweet. They killed a huge ecosystem in the hope to stimulate direct site engagement.
