Seems like it might not even be a bug. Elon says they limited it to 600 viewed tweets per day which is an insane limit. Most people would go through that in 5 minutes of scrolling

I noticed the frontend hammering the backend for the past few weeks, so I suspect that these new rate limits are a response to that, even if Musk wouldn't publicly admit it.

I don't doubt that Twitter saw a massive increase in traffic recently, but I feel at least somewhat confident that it's mostly self-inflicted on Twitter's part.
