These are the scripts made for my article about working with data exported from my tool for exploring fediverse connections.

You can follow along with my article, but in short:

1. Visit data.stefanbohacek.dev/projects/fediverse and log in with your fediverse account (see list of supported platforms).
2. Use the "Download your data" button to download a CSV file with your data and save it as connections.csv.
3. Install dependencies.

pip install pandas matplotlib tldextract

4. Run the connections.py script to generate a platforms.csv dataset with a breakdown of fediverse platforms by popularity of your connections' servers.

python connections.py

5. Use the platforms.py script to generate a bar chart from platforms.csv. (See platforms.png inside the example-output folder.)

python platforms.py

6. Make a copy of the connections.csv file called domains.csv and remove the connections and percentage columns.
7. Run the domains.py script to generate domain-info.csv with dates of registration of each domain. Make sure you have whois available in your terminal.

python domains.py

8. Use the domain-info.py script to generate a scatter plot chart from domain-info.csv.

python domain-info.py

BONUS: You can use the accounts.py script to download information about the number of accounts on each server.

python accounts.py
