Twitter plans on breaking all third-party apps/clients this June

Here's why you might see #BreakingMyTwitter over the next couple months.

For years, third-party Twitter clients have offered alternative ways to access the popular social network for users that weren't fans of Twitter's official apps. These clients have been hugely popular across iOS and Android, but Twitter's going to essentially break each and every one after June 19, 2018.

UPDATE: Twitter released an official statement from its @TwitterDev account stating that, though the Activity API update will still go into effect for third-party developers, the enforcement date has been delayed.
