When it came back I had 2-4 more followers that I lost in days prior.
I'm no rocket scientist, but that indicates to me that they might have restored something from a backup volume.
Followers on Twitter and interactions have been stagnant for ages in my experience there, actually having followers probably makes no sense on most of these social accounts any more, as they are throttling how users see content so much to drive ad sales.
If you really look at what goes viral on Twitter daily, and what trends constantly, it becomes very apparent that the entire experience is carefully managed by moderation and marketing that constantly leans towards sensational and controversial news... It's torturous to use Twitter now compared to years past, and they just don't care to change the user experience. I envision that most of the real people on the platform now only use it in small doses.

Could just be stale/incorrect cache data getting wiped. That's more common in my experience.
