Does the native app also constantly fail to load tweets linked from Reddit? And then you click the "retry" button and it fails again? Cause that's my general Twitter website experience...
I think that’s some sort of bug/poor interaction with anti-tracking features.
I don't use any anti tracking or ad blockers. I have the normal Reddit all and Twitter app on my pixel 3a and every time I click on a Twitter link it opens in an in app browser that can't log me in.
I think this is correct. My experience has been that when it's using a tracking url it fails (I Ad block and Tracker block) and I see the tracker url in the address bar, but when I click again, it just goes directly to the real URL; presumably some fallback Twitter put in to deal with people like myself :D
Yes it does.
Just tried it, and the difference between Twitter native and Twitter PWA is night and day. The PWA has absolutely 0 polish. No animations, no transitions, nothing. The tab bar at the bottom misses hits if you tap quickly / right after the PWA opens. The pull-to-refresh doesn't use the native scroll physics. The search tab's tab bar horizontal scrolling can interfere / combine with the vertical scrolling, causing really funky interactions.
Does it browse twitter? Yes. Is it good? Well, maybe if all you ever uses are PWAs, this is considered "good."
The topics of judgement you mentioned are all entirely subjective, but they run near identically for me.
