"Gone" error #393

Open Sploich opened 11 years ago

Starting earlier today, every time I click the Silverbird icon (having seen new tweets to check), I get this error. My tweets don't load and I can't figure out what's going on. Any help? gone

I have the exact same error that happened recently. I'm not sure what it is. I tried reinstalling the extension and authorizing it again and have the same problem. It happened after I cleared my cache on google chrome.. although I'm not sure if that is the direct result of the problem.

It appears that silver bird still uses twitter's Rest API v1, which is deprecated and is scheduled to be turned off completely on May 7, 2013. (The currently API is v1.1.)

At the moment, twitter is running a "blackout test", temporarily disabling the v1 API. I'm pretty sure that is what is causing the "Gone" errors.

More information here.

It's not working for me in a permanent way now. I guess twitter shut down the API v1 for real now...
