I went to the site to check up on my timeline, and the thing said 'something went wrong' and left me with a reload button. Trying to use that did nothing. Neither did using the regular reload button. I cleared the cache and even about:serviceworkers and looked up Twitter, and clicked 'unregister.' On both Twitter and Tweetdeck. But it still gives me the message that something is wrong on twitter proper, though tweetdeck still shows tweets and the like fine. Can anyone confirm if Twitter is having issues right now, or if it's somehow on my end?

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem,

Start Firefox using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While you are in Troubleshoot(Safe) mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connection certificates and send their own.
