I've not seen this issue. Do you have a character encoding switch or

Also, doesn't asCharacters have some depth to it? Is there an overload
or property at play here?

Yes. I imagine Twitter would rather not be forced to do the legwork on
offering explanations for trends.

Not being rude here, just noting that to design, code, probably run a

You can circumvent the issue by making the receiving of a DM that is
sent to a list dependent on two triggers:
a) You must follow the sender of the DM; and
b) You must explicitly double opt-in to receive DMs that are sent to
the list.

You have to view Twitter in its native environment - desktop/laptop AND
