Is it really that hard to just keep the API running?

The amount of apps they support it probably costs $50-100m+/year

Giviberidze•51m ago
Try KLIPY also - https://klipy.com/migrate we have much better GIFs, free access and monetization features. It takes 10 minutes to switch from Tenor with base URL swap.
