Done.
Allerdings weiss ich nicht so Recht, wie das Thema der Studie mit den Fragen der Studie aussagekräftig sein wird.
Für mich persönlich gefühlt zu viele geschlossene Fragen. Ist sicherlich auch ein weites Feld, da kommt man wohl ohne Einschränkungen nicht zum Ziel.
Drücke ihr die Daumen und wünsche viel Erfolg. :)
Dynamic_Friendica@slothrop I continue to be disoriented by some of the size ranges for instances that others consider noteworthy. To me, everything above 1000, is "large", and everything above 10,000 is truly excessive. I can't even fathom a 500,000 person instance.
tootbrute@slothrop i run my own self-hosted instance. hmm....nothing really to indicate on this that i do that so far. asking about my moderation policies.
i moderate my own posts, so yes....i know my policies.

@slothrop Cant complete it because it complains about not using the back button when i click next :/
@slothrop I took part, but I think the study has very bad questions. Sadly all the Questions are about the local Instance which one, if one is unhappy with, easily can move to a different one. It would be much more interessting to get questions about other aspects of the Fediverse
George Wüst@slothrop giddy up Stephanie!

Stéphane Bortzmeyer@slothrop From the questionnaire, the survey is just about Mastodon, the fediverse is not mentioned so if you use Pleroma or Misskey, you're probably not concerned.
