No, twitter's frontend code is garbage. It routinely does this (at least on Firefox), and -sometimes- works on a refresh or a hard refresh. It's been this way for years.

Regardless if something is really serious, then compile the relevant/important stuff into a blogpost instead of making people wade through random tweets.



Try visiting "about:serviceworkers" and unregistering any service workers from Twitter. I seem to remember that this improves the situation.


Thank you, that fixed it.

"A quick Google would recommend you turn router on and off again."

It's not a router issue, but thank you for assuming that I am unable to do basic internet searching. I have debugged this issue in the past as it occasionally occurs (for specific tweets only, twitter itself works well), and my conclusion is it's something on twitter's end.

"Why don't you do that if it's so necessary?"

I'm not the one submitting this on HN, am I? If I were, I wouldn't have linked random tweets. I wouldn't be tasking the commenters to compile the information into a usable format for me.

There's nothing actionable here, this just looks like some tuesday morning drama.
