Does anybody else's Twitter app constantly buffers videos a few seconds in, for about 20 seconds, then continues on playing? It's been happening for as long as I can remember now, but any other video I play outside of Twitter is fine. Just seems odd that it's always buffering on Twitter, and buffers for a long time too.

I'm on the official Twitter app, on a Huawei P30 Pro.

Yes. Have the same problem. Also on a p30 pro. Find it's fine on cellular data (with Spark) but not at home on WiFi with 2degrees. May be ipv6 related. Given up trying to track it down tbh.

What DNS server are you guys using? I had thoughts it might be DNS4ME but just a theory.

My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.

I use a pihole pointing to the 2degrees servers. Tried disabling the pihole but no difference. And it works fine on PC anyway.

I'm on Slingshot ipv4, and DNS is cloudflare's 1.1.1.1.

I hadn't noticed if it works properly on mobile data (I'm on Vodafone for this), will give that a try and report back.

So on 4G Vodafone it seems to work fine, so something on the network must be causing it... yet to find what.
