Mastodon #research 🚀
I’m working on my master’s thesis at the University of Vienna, and I’d love your input! My research focuses on sustaining long-term user activity on Mastodon, contributing to a more active Fediverse. If you have a few minutes, please take my short survey:
👉 https://sosci.univie.ac.at/MastodonActivity/
Your thoughts will contribute to meaningful research. Feel free to boost this post so we can reach as many users as possible. Thank you so much! 🙌

@stefko Will the outputs be published on an #OpenAccess repository under a free license (like CC BY for text, CC-0 for data)?

@nemobis Hi! Thank you so much for your interest! The code for my computational analysis is already online and available as Open Access (it’s also linked at the end of the survey).
I’d love to share the results of the survey too, but I haven’t decided where to publish them yet. Do you have any recommendations?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from stefko@mastodon.social
@stefko Ah! I didn't get to the end of the survey: I don't even go past the first page without a mention of CC BY. ;)
Yes, you can use https://zenodo.org/ (more advice at https://cyber.harvard.edu/hoap/?title=How_to_make_your_own_work_open_access&oldid=9356#Deposit_in_an_OA_repository_(%22green%22_OA%29 ).

@nemobis Thank you! I published my code with CC BY now :)

@stefko @nemobis hello Stefanie. I agree with Nemo. As a data repository I recommend Zenodo, where your survey will share hard drives with the data of high-energy physics experiments in the Large Hadron Collider. I also believe Open Access is the only path consistent with asking for people's collaboration.
Following you here. Will you toot when your results are out?

@alberto_cottica @nemobis Hi! Yes I will publish my results as soon as I have them. Thank you for participating in my survey!

@stefko @nemobis of course you will publish, that's what academics do. The request is for you to ALSO write 3/4 toots with the link to the paper or thesis or preprint, even if, by then, you have lost interest on Mastodon as a social media platform. Unlike the publications, those toots will not help your career, and are only a small cost that you accept to show accountability to the people that provided you with data.

@stefko Sounds like a great project! It's probably too late to add it now, but it would be interesting to know how the results break down in terms of people's gender, race, and tech experience.
I've got some discussion of barriers newcomers in the 2022/2023 wave faced in A faux "Eternal September" turns into flatness, as well as links out to @kissane's outstanding work on this front.
And, for deeper background Mastodon: a partial history has a lot of discussion and links from the early days. So many of the issues that are current barriers were already identified back in 2017!

@thenexusofprivacy @stefko @kissane I'm currently two-thirds of the way through reading this. I feel I have learned a few things. Things I was not naturally going to encounter. This article feels... important

Why do you want people to be more active on the Fediverse ?

@stefko I would be interested in seeing the results of your study. If you would update your post with info or a link to the results, everyone who boosted your post will receive a notification about that. 😉
Good luck!

Done. Felt like I was somewhat biased in answering some questions - as I am one of the admins :flan_XD:
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from h3artbl33d@exquisite.social
@h3artbl33d @stefko Yes, I came here to point that out too, the answers are skewed for instance admins. Of course I agree with every moderation decision on my instance, because I am the one making those decisions! 😂

@stefko A pleasure to assist a lively-minded young Austrian. Here in the other “Austr…” country I think of yours mainly for musicians, composers, and biomedical researchers.

@stefko filled it up, but Q7 felt weird: it felt more like a multiple choice between the options instead of put each on a spectrum, except the third option opens the possibility of managing high traffic. I answered the best I could.

@stefko Hi Vienna!! About to do the survey now!

@DrSuzanne That's so nice! Love the picture - thank you so much

@stefko I was in Vienna last summer, and as an academic, I made a special trip to see the university. It was a real delight.

@stefko I so happy to see you're on the right side of history and calling Mastodon posts Toots.
Nothing but respect.

Possible questions for future Mastodon user survey:
Favorite Mastodon features?
Annoyances/peeves (platform proper, instance)?

Внезапно вопрос: что вообще впился всем этот Mastodon? Я уже который год им не пользуюсь и как-то ничего не теряю, так как ничего особенного они не даёт. К тому же не больше 4 картинок на пост, что даже как-то глупо что ли.
Почему везде этот Мастодон?

@omega9 @stefko Не такой свистоперделочный, как миска, но побогаче функциями, чем плерома. Такая себе золотая середина.

@stefko Sehr nett!
Das ist sehr merkwürdig. Meine Frau hat ihre Doktorarbeit an der Universität Wien auch mit einer Umfrage gemacht. In ihrem Fall ging es um Philologie, aber sie hat ihre Analyse komplett in #R und #Python gemacht.
Hier ihr Repo:

@stefko I was really happy to answer your questionnaire! Thank you for doing important to research so that the Fediverse can thrive. Also, Vienna is amazing!

@stefko Hey, ich hab schon auf der letzten Seite der Umfrage kurz kommentiert und möchte den Hinweis noch ausführen:
Dass es diesen Rückgang an aktiven Accounts nach 2022 gab, hat mMn in erster Linie damit zu tun, dass das Fediverse kulturell von neurodiversen Menschen geprägt ist und neurotypische Normalos damit fremdeln.
Hier habe ich einige spannende Diskussionen dazu gesammelt: https://chaos.social/@frumble/113674949202682897
(Dennoch: Wir wachsen! Nur nicht mit der Projektion aus Ende 2022.)

@stefko best of luck with your thesis! 🍀
One thing I noticed (could be only me on Firefox Klar on Android): there's a picture missing on the first page of the survey.
