There's a bug with cleaning Twitter URLs. If you click a trending topic, the & is removed between two querystring parameters.

It should look like:

https://twitter.com/search?q=Puppies&vertical=trends

Instead it cleans to:

https://twitter.com/search?q=Puppiesvertical=trends

So if you read a tweet from trending and then click your browser's back button, Twitter thinks the trending topic is actually Puppiesvertical=trends.

Is this still an issue? If so, what browser and other extensions are you using? I'm unable to recreate the issue.

for me.

hmmmm it seems to be working now! I just tested in a private browser session with only tampermonkey enabled, and everything seems fine...tested in my regular browser session, and everything seems fine. 🤷‍♀️
