Got it, I can reproduce. After some investigation, it turns out the link in tweets have the "target" attribute set to "_blank", which is a special, deprecated way of requesting to open a new window/tab. It appears the webview doesn’t handle this well by default. I need to look into how we can support them (for now we’d just open them in the same view, ignoring the target attribute).
