  1. Just tried to upload a video of a small dialog box to #Twitter, which failed consistently. Apparently you can't upload videos wider than 3:1 aspect ratio and they neglected to add an error message, so it just fails inexplicably.
    Screenshot of Twitter with Chrome DevTools open. The "new tweet" box is filled out with with some text and a video. An alert message reads "The media you tried to upload was invalid." In the DevTools panel, the Network tab is open showing a JSON response for a `CreateTweet` request. The response includes the message "BadRequest Aspect ratio too large: Maximum: 3:1, Actual: 154:45".
