In advance of the election on 23 February 2025, a team1 Assistant Professor Professor Professor GLOBICZ at UCD School of Computer Sciential politicians from each political principal principal tree in Germany.
X users can choose between two content feeds, called For you and nEXT feeds. The default feed is For you Feed. Both feeds the algorithmically ranking, but the nEXT The food contains posts exclusively to users followed by the feed owner, which leads to the new content. On the contrary, only 20% of the posts shown in For you Food from users they follow.
Researchers make two puppies accounts X, which they follow the same phrase German politicians, which are tracked by nine members of nine members
Figure 1: The fragment is for your feeding events (red bars) and X (yellow bar) posts of 436 political members) to the left (HSW) to the right (AFD).
They know that distance poles AFD often appear to For you Feed, account for about 37.9% of feed posts, even if the AFD politicians only post 15.2% of politicians tweets at this time (see Figure 1). Similarly, the posts of other German population groups, the absence of BSW, appeared to be 10.6% of For you Feeding, despite the fact that their politicians only make 1.4% of politician tweets.
These results indicate that X is not valid highlights of German political classifieds, especially BSW and right wing of BSW and right wing of BSW and right wing of BSW and right wing In BSW and the right wing of BSW and the right BSW and right wing of BSW and the right wing of BSW and the right wing of BSW and the right wings of BSW and the right wings. For three largest non-popyist German – CDU, SPD, and vegetables – results are very different. Their members appear less often to For you Feed in January than they tweeted.
The top three reveals the For you The feed is: (1) Elon Musk, supporting AFD, (2) Alex Jones, an American long-standing radio host, and (3) Dennis Hohloch from the AFD.
Researchers checked potential factors that influence the content of the feed and the resulting techniques of Xorithmic Parties with Xorithmic feeds. (Opened to a new window)Report of Research Here is https://doi.org/10.5281/naodo.14880274
