Twitter has faced criticism for implementing rate limiting without prior notice, limiting the number of tweets users could read per day. The company claims that providing advance notice would have allowed bad actors to alter their behavior to evade detection. Twitter implemented the rate limit to combat bots and other harmful actors, preventing them from manipulating conversations and scraping public data. While the move has had a minimal effect on advertising, it has disrupted user experience and led to the release of an exclusive, improved version of TweetDeck for verified accounts.

Twitter's power-user interface, TweetDeck, is experiencing major issues after owner Elon Musk implemented limits on the number of tweets users can view daily. Users are reporting an empty interface, with notifications, mentions, likes, and lists failing to load. These problems are likely to impact professional and power users who rely on TweetDeck for brand building and reporting. The issues are believed to be related to the new tweet viewing limits announced by Musk, which were implemented to address data scraping and system manipulation. Twitter's main website and apps appear to be functional. This is the latest example of Twitter's reliability suffering, following previous outages and layoffs under Musk's ownership.

Twitter's apps, including Tweetdeck, are experiencing issues following Elon Musk's decision to cap tweet rates and require users to log in. Many users are reporting that Tweetdeck is no longer functioning properly, with columns showing a spinning wheel or repeatedly retrying 404s. Additionally, Google Search is displaying up to 50% fewer Twitter URLs due to the logged-in requirement. It is speculated that a bug in Twitter's web app is causing a "self-DDOS" effect. Twitter has stated that these restrictions are temporary but has not provided a timeline for their removal.
