more apps need to use custom app icons!
look at this sideloaded twitter app I’ve installed (NeoFreeBird) — these app icons were real Twitter Blue ones in the US from 2021-2022
More apps need these, they’re beautiful 😢

For the first time in decades, Apple’s position at the top of the tech industry is under genuine threat. And last week’s deal between OpenAI and designer Jony Ive put Apple’s plight into sharper focus.

@actuallyaridan * Make Twitter’s app icon match the current season
@actuallyaridan 👀
also if we remove one from there can you make it go to the sidebar when you swipe right?
My new pinned tweet on Twitter has this now…. did I cook? (I already had links to other places too, but I’ve now just made it look a little nicer)
I’m not gonna stop posting there, but this is where most of my stuff is anyway 🤷♂️

@actuallyaridan yesss keeping to old twitter standards!
As of writing, this doesn’t mean I’m quitting twitter, but most of my content is on my site (and that gets pushed to my socials)
I can’t get them to come to twitter in any meaningful way as it costs a bomb to tweet programatically via their API nowadays
