Self-taught developer and OSS enthusiast. I'm specialized in Front End development but I don't miss a chance to do JS anywhere, whether it's a browser, a mobile device, a server or a robot.
I found the problem. You have to ask for the tweets with tweet_mode: "extended" on the statuses/user_timeline endpoint, otherwise you don't always get the posted url. Might be a quirk of the twitter API, I'm not sure about it. Was writing about this when I finally understood the behavior. That's why writing about what you're doing is so important! 😄
