@kathleenthelaw Hi Kathleen, sorry that you experienced this!! Thanks for trying to complete our survey despite the difficulties. We really appreciate it πŸ™‚

Thanks!!!

Recruiting Survey Participants!

We are running a study on whether Mastodon feeds show us posts that align with our goals of using social media πŸ™‚

Estimated time: 10 mins
Participate for $5 compensation! (currently US only)

We'll try to build a tool to filter Mastodon posts to help us fulfill our goals of using social media. We will experiment with many methods (rule-based, topic models, large language models) to see if they can achieve this πŸ€”
