Why Can’t Twitter Fix Their Mac App?

Matt Henderson:

When Twitter announced dropping support for third-party developers and clients, the stated justification was that Twitter wanted ensure that every user received the best Twitter experience possible, and that could only be achieved if Twitter themselves controlled all vehicles through which users experienced the platform.

Fine, but how can we reconcile that position with the awful state of Twitter for Mac today, and the fact that it is apparently receiving zero attention within the company?
