TL;DR

Elon Musk has implemented read limits on Twitter to prevent data scraping, but this has caused major issues for TweetDeck users, including notifications and columns failing to load. Initially, the limits were set at 6,000 daily posts for verified users and 600 for unverified users, but they were later increased to 10,000 and 1,000 respectively. The effects of these restrictions are amplified within TweetDeck, which loads multiple tweets simultaneously. Users have reported errors and issues with various columns. The future of TweetDeck under Musk's management remains uncertain, with rumors of it potentially becoming a paid feature. Twitter has also implemented restrictions on viewing tweets without a login to prevent data scraping.
