@lumiukko I see that you probably mean certain French-language accounts. They are overactive this week for obvious reasons.

@lumiukko Not sure what you mean by "questionable".

We've included all elected members of the European Parliament found on Wikidata (past or current), so it's quite a wide spectrum. Due to the size of constituencies, in the various countries the threshold for a party to be included may be anywhere between 1 % and 5 % of the ballot for a majority of the seats.

Tweeting patterns may differ though. Do you have any specific example in mind?

There's an uptick of sign-ups on mastodon.social larger than on the day Musk bought 9.2% of Twitter's shares (that's the other peak). I suspect similar graphs across the entire Mastodon network (at least I hope so!)

Should we also mirror ~500 listed in the transparency register? (Trade associations included.)

The fixes are here! ✨ #Mastodon 3.5.1 is out, fixing some issues in the last release:

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/r

Notably, instead of having to enter a code sent by e-mail to login from a new IP address, you'll now just get notified about a new sign-in.

@ton Now at least there's something in respublicae.eu/explore (still populating).

OK, so all issues have been solved and instances are working. About half of the instances have already been updated to v3.5.0.

The rest of the update will be going much slower and probably only tomorrow it will finish.

There will still be another restart (15 seconds of downtime) even on instances that have already been updated, just to make sure I didn't miss any instance when I corrected this problem manually.

@s8n Ok. Sorry for federating posts not of interest for your instance.

(The posting rate should level out in the coming days.)

@ton Good idea. Most of the accounts are already in Wikidata, I'm still cleaning some mistakes I found there and I'll link the query then.

I'm not sure how to add all European Commission handles on Wikidata because not all offices and initiatives have their own item. Maybe I can just upload a CSV to Zenodo under CC-0. (I also wrote the EC asking that they do it themselves.)

@ton Good question... As a local user I can see them on the explore page.
respublicae.eu/web/explore/tag

Are non-local or non-logged-in users only able to see the top 3 trending hashtags?

I'm also hoping that something will start showing up here at some point but I'm not sure what the requirements are:

@ordnung @admin@todon.nl @LaQuadrature @trumpet @fosstodon @filippodb @milan @admin@mastodon.bida.im @CobaltVelvet @Framasoft

What about adding your instance to the relay relay.social.tigwali.fr , so we can hopefully connect a bunch of -based users better? 😇

FYI @nouts
