Double border = this tweet/reply has replies of its own — click it, then Expand Replies to go a level deeper. Works on reply nodes too, so a thread nests as deep as it actually goes.
A user/retweeter node's photo is their real avatar when one was captured (cookie mode) — the plain purple circle is the fallback when it wasn't.
Expanding a node further
Tweet/Reply — Expand Replies, Expand Retweets, or View Author Profile (pulls the author out as its own node, free — no request, the data's already on the tweet). User/Retweeter — Expand Posts, Expand Followers, or Expand Following. Works on a "View Author" node too, so a reply's author can be looked up in full: posts, followers, following.
Edge labels show how two nodes relate once expanded: replied by, retweeted by, posted, followed by, follows, authored by. A plain unlabeled edge just means "matched the search."
Correlation — this connects to a node already reached some other way (e.g. a reply's author who also turns up as a follower). Marks where two separate paths through the graph converge on the same account/tweet.
