Why don't I see tweets automagically in my browser anymore ? [View all]

When DU first started auto-loading tweets, I found it kind of annoying, but now there are so many posts with tweets it's kind of a waste of time having to do the two-step process just to see one line of text or one pic. I don't remember doing anything to turn tweets off, but I think they stopped after I upgraded Firefox (NOT positive about that) or maybe after I changed some uBlock Origin settings. Anyone have the same experience ? What's the fix ?

I just tried whitelisting twitter and it had no effect. eppur_se_muova Jan 2019 #6

Tweets don't embed for me because I have the NoScript add-on installed. Make7 Jan 2019 #7

Thanks, I have so few add-ons I seldom think about them. Did try disabling uBlock Origin ... eppur_se_muova Jan 2019 #8
