That's what killed off Falcon Pro. The author released a version of the APP with a secret way of putting in your own API keys and I used that for a bit. Then he released a new version, but couldn't just grant the old people access because it would quickly reach the rate limit.
It was about that time I just totally abandoned Twitter.
Use Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey. Fuck lock-ins. ActivyPub forever!
I don't understand what is the issue if user can add their own keys - just release the app with default set of keys or even without and let the user set their own.
Other than that, indeed Mastodon and co. are great. :)
