I don’t know what exactly twitter is but it seems like it is some kind of scam website.

xorg's alternate domain redirecting to the biggest trash heap ever is not a bug, its a feature - xorg finally understands that it's equivalent to the biggest pile of shit on earth

I heard that twitter is some kind of x11 wm
a fork of OpenBox

Looks like X.com was acquired by some domain squatter, I don't yet understand why they redirect to the scam website twitter.com though. Seems like somebody's trying to direct traffic towards this 'twitter' website.

That's right, use wayland

Can confirm Wayland is much better than x. Take it from someone who uses Wayland with mint.

I think that fixing this issue would certainly bring advertisers back to xorg
