The @Twitter-hates-its-users-journal entry #84763: so this morning I had the unfortunate experience of logging into Tweetbot to see the activities tab disabled. I looked on the app update history and, it’s not good.pic.twitter.com/SLdgGHj6V2
Yeah, I do @musllibc, FOSS & infosec stuff. But now is not the time for a mostly-/only-tech Twitter feed.

Sometimes I think Twitter is purposely trying to tank itself.
This is a bad business decision but I can see why they might think it's a good one: in the short term it forces more users to compromise and pick up their mobile client again, increasing ad revenue.
But in the long term it continues twitter's user alienation, and pushes more people away from the platform who might have engaged otherwise.
Even on the official client, it’s getting more difficult to see what you want amongst the ads and other’s likes and retweets. If they wanted to do a paid no-ads client, they’d have something.
Mobile web (progressive web app) client with UBO. No ads, and you should be able to write a custom filter to kill "X liked...", etc. Plus it's much better than the official client to begin with.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
