It happens in Safari as well, and predates the move to the new server. It's fixed in WebKit nightlies so the next version of Safari shouldn't have the problem.

Whether Chrome will end up picking up the fix I do not know since Google is using their own WebKit fork these days. Might be worth reporting a bug against Chrome on the Mac.

Thanks to you folks who deal with the debugging! Quick question: is there anyway either in twitter or in some of the t third part managers to separate people you follow without unfollowing or completely muting them. There is one guy who has interesting stuff, but posts as much as 30 other people combined. So I'd like to give him his own tab, and look at him when I want to, and not have him mixed in with other people. Also, I'd kind of like to separate people I follow for politics from people I know personally. I'm sure I could come up with other divisions. Can lists do this. Or what?

I use lists for people like that, but I don't follow them.

So if you put somebody on a list but do not follow them, then you don't see them in your regular feed, only when you go to the lists?

yes. this helps me manage my twitter feed. I have about 2-3 fast moving lists and I check in on them when I get a chance.

there are a couple of people who I follow, but I permanently have them muted. They are a courtesy follow, but their feeds are a bunch of trash I don't care about.

Yes, exactly. I do this especially for politics & news that would otherwise clog my feed, or for tweets where I want to read everything together, for example, I have a separate list just for @RealTimeWWII.

I don't "follow" that many people I wouldn't have actual conversations with, but I might have them on a list.

This. If I can imagine a scenario where a conversation, or even where I'd want to use DMs, then I follow. If not, they're on a list. I have fun lists like "Survivor" where I follow the CBS Survivor cast (past and present), as an example.
