Fediverse Explorations

I am a huge fan of the fediverse, and here are my articles where I explore it through data and polls. For more fediverse tutorials and tools, visit the fediverse tag.

A color-tinted screenshot of a scatter chart showing the distribution of fediverse posts from April 23, 2023 to June 10, 2024 based on the number of likes. Most of the data is clustered in the 0 to 1,000 likes range, with a few posts in the 2,000 to 3,000 likes range, and even fewer above that. 5 posts are in the top 5,000 to 6,000 range, most of those posted in July 2023.
