This is a hard coded result set limit derived from PhabricatorCursorPagedPolicyAwareQuery. The "show older" only appears if the user has interacted with the timeline. As far as I can tell from the code in PhabricatorApplicationTransactionView, this is the only paging method for the timeline.

However, you can put a parameter in the URL like https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78424?before=33 that will show the earliest transactions without interacting.

One thing is the collapsible bar, which is useful and easy to understand, and another is the fact that oldest items are removed from the history even when the page is expanded (which is not useful and impossible to understand unless you happen to know a developer checking for you what is happening at a source code level).

Could this limitation to 100 items be removed, please?
