5. Check the Content Blocking settings in FireFox for DU.

If you open this link to a thread with a tweet in the OP in a new tab, is there a shield icon in your address bar?

If so, click it to bring up the control panel and click the 'Disable Blocking For This Site' button.

If that doesn't fix it (or blocking in FireFox isn't enabled), try turning off uBlock just for DU on that thread linked above. If that fixes it, you probably need to whitelist twitter.com and twimg.com somehow - I'm not familiar with uBlock so I can't give detailed help on that. Although if it seems to be uBlock and you need assistance figuring out the settings, I could install it temporarily to try to figure it out.

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