Yes, I've just done that (disabling NoScript altogether), no difference. :-/
I don't use firefox but there should be a way to open the console window to look for error messages. Something else you are running is blocking it. I am sure if you tested with Chrome or Edge it would work, or a default Firefox with no add-ons.
Can anyone else w/Firefox confirm it works?

I've just tried it with IE and I have the same symptoms - I brought the IE safety features to a minimum but didn't seem to help.

Interesting. Works fine here. Something blocking twitter.com maybe, can you browse to twitter.com directly?
Can you load this javascript file without issue?

I can browse to twitter.com but I can't load that widget.js file - all I get is a text dump on my screen.
Trying to open it on IE does not do anything either.
I thought it might have been my Antivirus but that's not reporting anything blocked.

@Big Mike
I may have hardened some security settings on FF years ago and forgotten about it.
However I don't think the above should have an impact on IE too.
In any case, given I am a bit of a security freak, it may be wise to wait for feedback from another FF user, to see if it's just me.

A wall of code is what you should get. If that file is loading, I have no idea why it's not working for you.
Follow these instructions to open the console and let's see what the errors are. After you open the console, reload the page.

Here is the web console result after reloading the page. It's blank.
However I'm not too worried: I've tried Firefox from another machine and I can see the Twitter feed (albeit with a font which is a bit big!), so it's probably something to do with my own FF settings.

Just to confirm:
a) Browse to FIO home page with "broken" Twitter feed
b) Load the console window
c) Refresh/reload (F5) the page, to populate the console

@xplorer , also I googled and found this:
https://devcommunity.x.com/t/help-embedded-twitter-widget-not-working-in-latest-firefox/57828
Suggesting your privacy setting is set to 'do not track', which would prevent you from seeing the feed.
