Twitter rectifies error that prevented desktop users from accessing profiles

Several Twitter users on Thursday encountered issues while accessing profiles and timelines before the microblogging platform rectified the issue.

Early this morning, many Twitter users reported they were unable to access their timelines, load replies or read Twitter threads.

The error message saying, "Something went wrong, try reloading" kept re-appearing on people's profile pages.
