I’ve had a few accounts get stuck in an authentication loop using the orbit / picture matching verification, where after I complete it I get the following message. (After it says something like you’e proved your human). Next time Twitter loads it starts over.
Something went wrong.
Due to a technical issue, we couldn’t complete this request. Please try again.
Which browser are you using to log in? Chrome seems to prevent this login issue most of the times.
But yes Twitter has been terrible in general lately and i’ve lost many accounts that i had for many years.
Clear the affected Twitter/X session and site data, then retry in an up-to-date Chrome session with extensions and network tools disabled; compare whether the loop persists in a private session, another account, or another device. Sign out, remove Twitter/X cookies and stored site data, restart Chrome, then complete the verification again. The orbit check may succeed while Twitter fails to save or accept the resulting authentication session. Temporarily remove VPN/proxy, DNS filtering, and similar interference. If several accounts or devices still loop after this, the failure is likely Twitter-side authentication state: wait or contact support rather than repeatedly redoing verification.
