Twitter is unstable? I can't remember the last time it had an outage.

Are you potentially in the US? I think the experience is very different globally.

Ever since the Twitter -> X rebranding, every time I open Twitter links, I have a very high chance of hitting a "Something went wrong" type page, with a retry button that just does nothing. It's been like this for ages. I barely open Twitter links anymore as a result.

I think they may mean Twitter's 'Fail Whale' era – late 2000s/early 2010s, when it regularly fell over under load.

~2007-12?!
