@aral are you excluding the possibility that regulators (e.g. at EU level) *force* them to adopt it on the basis of anti-monopoly legislation? -

Groups that unite the majority of EP members such as the EPP and S&D, on the contrary, receive a share of engagement that is considerably lower than their share of seats.
A number of factors may lead or contribute to these results, including:
1. smaller groups send to the EP their leaders; larger groups send backbanchers
2. mainstream, nuanced positions attract less engagement on social media than strong or extrame takes
3. bots, and such
Is this a case of vocal minority VS silent majority? Is the very nature of social media giving more visibility to vocal minorities/more radical views? And, fundamentally, is this distorting the perception of what are commonly held opinions by the silent majority?
As a relative newcomer to these questions, I'd welcome thoughts/insights/suggestions on further issues to explore. -

My exploration of the European Parliament's twittersphere hints at a strong trend: representatives of anti-EU groups receive an amount of attention on Twitter (as recorded by "favorite" and "retweet") that is disproportionate to their electoral ratings.

In 2017, tweets by members of the EP group that includes UKIP and Italy's Northern League received on average about 5 times more engagement than the average MEP. Even calculating the median, rather than the average, in order to reduce the impact of individual Twitter super-stars, the trend remains strong. Also leftist and green EP groups receive disproportionate attention, even if to a lesser extent. https://social.giorgiocomai.eu/attachment/19400 -

You mean, roughly, something along these lines plus labels for the absolute values? It conveys better the change between negative and positive, but I don't think it really transmits the magnitude of a 50% drop in exchange rate in a single year. Thanks for the feedback! https://social.giorgiocomai.eu/attachment/19367 -

I'm looking for an effective way to highlight how much the RUB/USD exchange rate has changed over recent years. I think classic line graph doesn't really convey it, so I tried with a barchart adding lines for the percentage change. Suggestions from the fediverse?
