TerribleI had a twitter account for many years, but recently it was suspended for ‘inauthentic behaviours’ and no amount of appeals or requests to support are able to assist. It is all just AI now and no humans.
UpdateLatest update is garbage.. “Load more posts” gives me nothing but a frozen page.. happens too often Been happening for weeks now even after I deleted & reinstalled app & numerous updates
Space issues, ChatGPT investigated for hours to no availUnable to hear space for a particular host😩 Can hear all other spaces!
