   There's a huge chunk of the network that "we" represent, that are widely blocked but also widely federated with, that are almost completely un-remarked-on by these "academics", because they all live behind the Fediblock firewall, and only cross over to search how many times the word "nigger" was used on servers. It's pathetic that this tiny, self-imposed restriction filters everything they perceive about the Fediverse and how it works.
   
   When are we going to get better academic papers on the "real" Fediverse, not the highly-filtered one?

     @sun Maybe by sending them the url of you post ? I mean it's not like they don't give their email publicly.

     @sun Reminds me of how academics all tend to only look at github for FOSS when the big projects are elsewhere, both because Github is terribly unfit for big projects and because most tend to prefer managing their own infra, after all Github won't be forever.

     @sun In fact I grepped gentoo repo metadata in 2018, Github represented 26%, which is pretty big but from a Gentoo perspective it means that they were missing 74% of software out there.
     
     Lot of projects moved so now it's 56% on github (which I find terribly sad), it's now a majority but you'd still be missing almost half of projects.

     @waifu could submit to an open access journal I guess.

     @sun@shitposter.world I come from the academic world and it's full of snobs and elitists I hate them all but doing research is very interesting, specially looking at data. Actually I still have waifuism.life database around, it should show a good chunk of instances considering we weren't as blocked back then

     @sun@shitposter.world Ok we're going somewhere, I'm tagging @nyanide@lab.nyanide.com since we were thinking about a way of getting rid of sensible data before sharing it, I'm guessing getting it into a db and then doing some data analysis would be fun.
     This was the article you were looking at right?
     https://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/view/22254/4864
     I would like to read it and have an starting point even if it's really dumb

     @waifu @nyanide if we do this we should think about what WE want to say.
