I only have about 70 followers, so I did a manual count. Twitter estimated ~40 men and ~30 women. The actual figures are 16 men and 35 women; the rest are a mixture of nonbinary people, bots, plus two humans whose gender I'm not sure of. So essentially the algorithm assigned ALL the bots and the nonbinary humans as male, in my case. (As some of the bots are, heh, decidedly female-presenting, it seems likely that they assigned some human women as men).
