    The twitter things that are posted in threads no longer populate in my browser. It has been this way for a while but it is a bummer missing part of the conversation.

    Any idea why? Firefox. Windows 10. I have Adblock plus running as well.

    Thanks.

    Fairly sure its a Firefox security setting.

    I'll post screenshots of the tweet with mine in the future.

    you have to point your CPU at the 5th nodule of the Starlink satellite when it cruises overhead.

    the only thing about twitter I've noticed is that it's basically turned into a smut site.

    I have the app on my computer. Since Musk has taken over, it routinely deletes itself every couple of months.

    Another issue is what's happening today -- it refuses to open at all. I can open it as a webpage, but the app just refuses. No other app I have is doing that.

    If twitter disappears from your online experience consider yourself blessed. It's a cancer on the world.

    I think it was WC Fields who said "a woman drove me to drink and I never had the courtesy to thank her." I should thank Musk for driving me off Twitter, because it has improved my life significantly.
