I want to have an AWS region where everything breaks with high frequency

Why does Twitter often fail to load when I open a thread and if I refresh it works. Does Twitter use us-fail-1?

I don't know why, but it happens to everyone and it's been that way for a long time. Either their engineers are failing, or there's some sketchy monetary reason for it. You're not the only one.

I think they don't like browsers they can't fingerprint, or something like that.

You mean the "Click here to reload Twitter" thing? That's spam protection, I hit this regularly after restarting Chrome (with ~600 tabs).

Ya but clicking that doesn't even work. And I rarely go on Twitter so I don't know why they would do it intentionally.

For me it's the exact opposite -- always on mobile, always when logged out (haven't extensively tested being logged in on mobile, since I'm barely logged in to Twitter on mobile.)
