Not positive about this yet but for desktop users...
I usually keep two Twitter tabs open. One on my TL and one for mentions and DM's.
When I hit the rate limit on my TL I switch to my DM/mentions tab and I can still respond to DM's and favorite mentions.
When I switch back to my TL tab the rate limit seems to be re-set.
@Render i thought you'd found a loophole there
yup deffo is scrolling past tweets counts a viewing and when you do tap on a tweet you have to scroll past all the elon stans with blue ticks
can exceed the limit pretty fast
@Render
If that's all it takes to trigger a rate limit, then their infrastructure really has gone to shit.

@Render If you have a second account, even if linked, it’s treated separately.
I’ll try the two window reset later
@Zaptrapped The two tabs trick didn't work. Eventually it rate limited both tabs.
Never mind. It eventually rate limited both tabs.
