Embedded tweets with long poster names induce horizontal scrolling

Tweets with sufficiently long poster names will introduce a horizontal scrollbar. They get visibly cut off at the border but the layout engine apparently uses the full length of the text to decide the width of the “page”. No idea if you can do anything about that, either, but figured I’d pass it on just in case. — power crystals

Good news: it's not every super long name. I wish I had noted down which post it was that I was able to reliably reproduce the problem with (hiding that post was fine, show previous posts added a scrollbar, etc.). But I think that one's name ended in an emoji so it's probably something horrible like the word separation algorithm behaving differently in that case or something. — power crystals

I’ve noticed that embedded tweets from people with obnoxiously long Twitter names can cause horizontal scrolling. Ive traces it down in the inspector and it is the name within the embedded tweet for sure. I’ve tried updating the widgets.js but it persists. Example: — carry on then
