Twitter Update Interval
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears to be the case that Twitter feeds work with an update interval of one hour.
I have two active Twitter lists I'm subscribed to that, according to the fetching pattern, should get updated every -30 min, but after manually monitoring them once in a while, I always end up getting the feeling that the update interval is set to a fixed whole hour because the following unread tweet shows me the 1h stamp every time which also matches the time of the tweet after checking the original post.
Just curious. Is it my imagination or are Twitter feeds a special case?

Fixed. Thank you for reporting this.
There was a bug in Twitter rate limit handling that caused too aggressive rate limiting and delayed updates.

Didn't expect that, but I'm really happy about the result. Thank you.
