If I recall correctly this repo is missing data so it's functionally impossible to verify or replicate the behaviour they're using on live.

  Not only that, it's not been updated in 8 months. It's extremely unlikely that Twitter hasn't updated anything about the home feed since then. They effectively dumped part of the code on GitHub for some headlines, but never intended to keep developing it in the open.

      Not explicitly. But since they gave it an AGPL licence, you can request the updated source from them, so the intention was definitely there. (Then again, as owners they can relicense any time they want, so it's not really binding for them) They also invited to contribute to that repo... but none of the serious PRs got ever merged as far as I can tell. Basically, they were never serious about doing this.
