   "During the #Eunomia meeting, I was asked, who are the most influential accounts on Mastodon? I know what Mastodon thinks about popularity contests, so don't get me wrong, I am not going to publish what I find, but I am thinking of methodologies for determining who in this network has influence."
   
   
   And that's how the worms get in the brain.

      I'm only half-joking, you can and probably by the end of the year will see algorithms on Mastodon.  People will defend them at first but they will be shit and deeply regretted and by the time people realize they are shit it will be far too late.

         Imo mastodon is a good example, and maybe there are older ones that I am not aware of, that free software projects who are mainly about communication networks are possibly more influenced by third parties and they cannot be mitigated by legal means. Layer 8 strikes again.

      @maiyannah Whoever is doing this #Eunomia stuff, please desist at once. We should not be having dossiers compiled on fediverse "influencers" (whoever they are) and sold to quasi-military organizations.
