There are very few things that I prefer the mobile version of over desktop, but twitter on a browser is just about unusable
So many times I go to click on a tweet and something else shifts into that spot at the last possible moment
And once you’ve scrolled down far enough something further up will start glitching making the text you’re reading randomly flicker up and down
