I get error msg when I try to access Twitter. Is it something I did or is Twitter really down (hard to believe).

Worked! Thank you so much!

I have the same issue. Ctrl-F5 works temporarily, but I have to do it again every time I go to twitter. It's annoying, and it only started happening a day ago. Is there not a more permanent solution?

I had this issue too, fixed it by clearing the cookies for twitter specifically. You can find it under Privacy & security > Manage Data.

You're right, clearing twitter's cookies worked. Thanks!

None of these solutions worked for me or any of the others that I found elsewhere. Reddit said a while back the same thing was happening and that it was a bug and an update fixed it. Any chance of that happening sometime soon?

Go to about:serviceworkers and look for the Twitter service worker, then unregister that.

I can not believe how easy of a fix this was. Thanks friend!
