You are correct. The only way I could get the Twitch to work is using TLS1.2 and I was only able to do that in Opera Mini on my N9, not in the Meego native browser. There may be other options, but I don't know what they are. Opera's ability to enable the TLS1.2 alone didn't appear to solve the problem, either. I went to SSL labs and saw the error about SSL 3 being enabled, so I deactivated that in Opera and that's finally when Twitch loaded.

I think it's an equation with multiple variables that need to be addressed for different sites. But the good news is that it is possible to work around some of these issues for the time being - if one is intent on using an N9 in 2018.

And good point about getting rid of expired or worse, hacked SSLs. I had not even thought about doing that. Thanks.
