Seriously. The UX/UI on Twitter has always been a dumpster fire.

Same. So much spacing between the 3 lines. If they want to keep that huge header I'd suggest it gracefully entirely disappear when scrolling down and reappear when scrolling up.

Smooth as butter with Firefox on Android. As for why scrolljacking is "allowed", web devs will always find new ways to do annoying things and work around browser constraints.

Oh, if they're sending via your provider's SMTP then that makes sense. Still, I can't imagine a lot of people use this feature.

Yes, that was my first thought. It's wild to me that GMail would support sending as yahoo.com, outlook.com, etc. in the first place. Google makes lots of questionable decisions and shuts down lots of products uncessarily, but this is not a strange or unwarranted move.

With workspace you can add your own custom domains anyway... This seems unrelated.
