I have the same issue. It doesn't show me a list of the videos or links of videos like it used to. It just gets stuck after finding the videos, and then freezes up or finishes (screenshot below). I have tried both the soft and hard reset. I have also tried leaving it overnight, in case it was just taking ages. Didn't seem to help.

I was using Edge, so I thought some of the new security and verification stuff might be the issue. However, I get the same result with Mozilla, with the addition of it opening a bunch of pop up windows named "Twitter Widget Log Helper" (https://platform.twitter.com/jot.html) that are blank (screenshot below). Refreshing those windows does not do anything, and they remain blank.

I'm wondering if it's because there are a lot of videos. Maybe it's too much to process to pull them all?

I would "upvote" if possible, but want to add that I'm also having the same issue on Firefox--just the text-format queues panel in the center.

This is down to the queues needing to be renamed. “getVideos” is misleading. You encountered 200 players with linked Twitch accounts, so the site fetches VODs for each of those streamers with the getVideos Twitch API. The site then checks to see if any of those results match up with when you played against those players. If you don’t see any clips appear, it means the site didn’t find any matching videos to show you. Players weren’t streaming at the time, or they have their VODs hidden, or maybe they’re not even streamers but they linked their accounts for one reason or another.
