The Twitter sign in dialogue asks for too many things. #30

We don't need to read or post tweets on behalf of the user. Maybe we should fix this on Twitter's developer website? (Don't add read/write permissions there?)

Looking into this now, too.

I changed the app on Twitter's developer site to read-only. (screenshot below)

I think it's much better, but @EditDojo still needs to be able to post (write) tweets. But it turns out, tokens generated BEFORE changing the permission settings still have the same permissions. So, we can just keep using the same tokens to write tweets. If ever we need to refresh the tokens in the future, maybe we can temporarily change the permission settings, recreate tokens, and then change the settings back? lol
