Twitter constantly refreshes

Twitter is constantly refreshing when I click almost anything.

It means that OldTwitter failed to properly inject, there's lot of randomness to this, not sure what causes this to be more or less frequent

Workaround: if you open the twitter tab in the background with "Open Link in New Tab" or immediately switch to a different tab after opening Twitter, it always loads properly when you switch back. The issue only occurs when you open the page and wait for it without switching off.

For me the indefinite refresh loops are coming from

Maybe the checks to set these timeouts are being executed too soon?

I'm getting this problem now on Firefox. It just started happening out of nowhere after months of use with no problems. I tested with all add-ons off except for this one and still got the infinite refreshing. Also tried the workaround above. It doesn't work for me at all
