TweetDeck suffers from Elon Musk restricted the number of tweets that users are able to see in a single day over the weekend. He stated that this was done to avoid data scraping. All Twitter users have been impacted by this change, but users of TweetDeck are specifically reporting serious issues today. These issues include notifications not loading and full columns not loading properly.
In the beginning, Musk enforced a daily post restriction of 6,000 for verified users and a limit of 600 for unverified users for the amount of content they could view.
A few hours later, he raised these limits to a total of 10,000 tweets and 1,000 tweets each individually. It is possible that the impacts of the read limits are accentuated within TweetDeck due to the fact that TweetDeck loads several tweets through various columns simultaneously.

Many users also said that their home timeline is loading, but other columns, such as alerts, mentions, and likes, are having trouble.

The future of TweetDeck
The last time we heard from the company about TweetDeck was when the Mac app was shut down in June 2022. This was before Musk took over the business. Twitter said at the time that it was trying a new version of the TweetDeck web app in certain places. But we don’t know anything about TweetDeck’s future under the new management. There have been rumors that the company will make it a paid tool, but we don’t know for sure.
Last week, Twitter also made it hard to look at tweets without logging in. It looks like the company is trying to stop people or other companies from scraping data to build AI models. Musk said this was a “temporary emergency measure” because Twitter was having its “data stolen,” which made it hard for users to use. But Musk’s actions have also hurt the user experience because people quickly hit rate caps on the platform, even “verified” users who are getting paid.
