> And on Android, every time I follow a link to Twitter in an app that opens in a web view, it gives me a faulty page that I have to refresh a few times before I'm able to view it. It loads the page fine, but some rest call or whatever to fetch the tweet crashes.
I get this issue too, I figured it was part of some trick to make me want to use the app.
- wlesieutre 6y agoDoes that on iOS too, every single time
- scsilver 6y agoInsane that one of the most used websites on the internet doesnt work most of the time.
- wlesieutre 6y agoMaybe it works when navigated to directly, but the only time I ever go to Twitter is if someone links it from Reddit. And without fail that looks like this: https://imgur.com/fQJ27MF https://imgur.com/fQJ27MF The button to “Try Again” doesn’t work either, you have to manually reload the page. This is in Apollo on iOS, but it sounds like the same broken behavior happens in web views on Android.
- noja 6y agoI thought this was intended: any page load that does not finish within x seconds is aborted. It will normally succeed for me on the reload with the cached assets. I understood this to be a (bad) optimization for rejecting slow clients.
- Polycryptus 6y agoIt does that for me even _in_ the app, so no, it's just broken...
