It means any of the information in that GitHub link can be used in your own project as long as it's also under AGPL-3.0. So they are not only allowing people to see how this stuff works, but also allowing people to use it for themselves.

The fact that they're not running this exact code in production rn doesnt mean this isn't real tho You can't just copy paste the recommender algorithms from their codebase where it's gonna have a million dependencies & need to pull information & config data from a hundred sources
Like they actually put in a bunch of effort to make all of this self contained and usable

An algorithm is a way to process, store, sort, or otherwise rearrange data so it becomes useful. This algo provides recommendations based on NSFW content, likelihood of a Twitter user interacting with another user, user reputation, tweet ranking, legal compliance, etc. It's a big deal because giant tech companies prefer to keep these things secret. I mean bussy lmao

Twitter determins your political alignment based on things you view and interact with then recommends you things you are likely going to want to see. It keeps people from invading each others bubbles which makes twitter feel more right or left leaning to keep you hooked.

Literally every major social media optimizes for engagement. Anger is one of the strongest emotions to keep people interacting with your service for the longest amount of time (also happiness (cute kittens!!!), lust, and comedy are some other major, less potent drivers of engagement pretty sure)

It definitely does that but I don't think that's what that code does
there's a few things there like
has_us_political_annotation
that make me think this is more about pre-tagged official US political accounts, but I'm not sure what the goal is with tagging them by partyJump in the discussion.
