My system has twitter blocked by hostname, it couldn't load a twitter resource if I tried. The page loaded fast for me, so those "quotes", if that's what they are, are just text on the page and not embeds

Edit: huh you're not alone though. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37724652 And checking a traffic capture, indeed it shows platform.twitter.com being loaded and blocked. Wtf is it trying to load (to the point of crashing browsers) if not the twitter posts?!
