Related: About this forumQuestion about Twiiter on DU
On my Macs and Iphone when someone post a link to a Twitter feed I can read it in the DU thread. On my PC it only shows the Twitter link and I have to click on the link and go to Twitter to read it.
Makes me crazy and I can't figure out how to see the link on the DU thread.
Thanks.

(16,492 posts)Our internet was out for 2 days so I looked at twitter using my phone. It was a whole new experience and it seemed like I saw more conversations. My normal method is using the kindle or sometimes on a laptop. Do each of them have different software or something (as far as the app goes)? Why does the browser matter?
Thanks

(16,492 posts)I guess I just don't know much about how Twitter works. It seems the phone give a much better experience for some reason.

(1,622 posts)...Go to Chrome's "Settings", go to "Advanced", go to "Privacy and Security", and toggle the "Send a "Do Not Track" request with your browsing traffic" off and back on (or on and back off, depending on your original preference.) I don't know why but it's worked for me and others as well so I hope it works for you, too. Let us know...

(9,110 posts)I was set up to block tracking attempts and when some one post a twitter link it was blocked. I turned it off for DU and now I can see the Twitter post.
Thanks
