I don't spend much time here talking about X/Twitter -- I don't use it terribly often any more, but ...
... whenever I open a browser to check it, I'm startled by how long it takes to load the messages and posts
A *lot* of spinny loading-wheels, for many full seconds
I have no special insight into what's happening on the back end, but yowsa it doesn't look great from the outside user's perspective
