Twitter.com performance

Post by drivetheory » 2020-12-17, 19:48

Is there anything that can be done to improve the performance of Twitter?
Trying to scroll through posted photos/videos is an extremely frustrating experience compared to how twitter behaves in Chrome/Firefox.
If no solutions are available I'd still love to hear what the cause of this performance problem is.
