If you are in any way literate in basic programming, I suggest to take a look at Twitter algorithm that they published on GitHub. There are many programmers who took a dive into it. So, you don’t need crazy amount of programming knowledge to understand how the algorithm behaves.
The problem nowadays is that people take what media is saying with authority. When times after time they have shown to be either biased or flat out wrong. They just want to push content that their readers want to see.
Really, education is powerful. Get yourself some basic understanding on many stuff before you start to rely on theverge for analysis.

That's not true. The code posted doesn't really illuminate how the algorithm actually works, and with Musk pay walling API access, it's impossible to actually deduce how its system actually functions.

It's equivalent to capturing an enigma machine but without its cipher keys and code books. You have the machine, but can't quite confirm how exactly it works without that reference information.
