After this Twitter migration my dropped to 27% and the website can barely measure it for one single day due to the great amount of toots...
I'm sorry @GustavinoBevilacqua I can barely encounter a toot or two of yours among this huge flow.

Things are going to change rapidly here in the next weeks.
We'll see what happens.
It would be nice to monitor some parameters to be able to give some metric to these changes.
I guess something interesting would be the daily number of hashtags, which I believe is going to increase drastically.

@GustavinoBevilacqua ora voglio sapere il tuo e soprattutto da chi ricevi più messaggi!

Lancio la sfida del vediamo chi ha il tasso più basso negli ultimi 5 giorni.

Il mio è del 37.7%

Voglio vedere se c'è qualcuno che segue @GustavinoBevilacqua e che abbia qualcun'altro come Gustavino!

I'm happy to announce that I finally published online the first version of the calculator!
You can access it here:
gustavino.crucitti.xyz/
(Yes, sure... I'll add some ssl eventually)

Of course I'm open to subdomain donations for this thing...

It is not polished, but should kind of work...
If it breaks it breaks, don't really know all problems that could arise.
Oh well, take it as it is and if you find some problems let me know.

Usage: Enter the number of days you wish to analyze
Enter the url of you instance, including https://
Press the submit button

Log in your instance and authorize the application to read your stuff (I'm not storing any of it)
Wait for a while, it will stay on the authorization page for a while; this is normal, keep waiting.

A table will appear with your daily and the one of the whole period and the name of your Gustavino

For the people reading this and not understanding all the fuzz about this ratio.
The is the ratio of toots in you home timeline by the person who appears most often over the total amount of toots in your home timeline.
The name is Gustavino because @GustavinoBevilacqua gave me the idea of measuring this quantity, and I since discovered that he often accounts for 50% of the toots in my home timeline.

The calculator is now usable.
It returns a page with a table.

Sure, it's not pretty and there's plenty of stuff to improve, but it'll work for now.

I'll try to upload it to my server so that other people can tell me whether it works

calcular, here we are; it now should work with any mastodon instance.
I now have to make the tables render correctly and I might have a first publishable draft.

The calculator has been deemed a good formative project in view of other works I'll have to do using Django.
Thus making the calculator is now basically my job.

Thank you @GustavinoBevilacqua, I'm now being paid to make a joke...

I'm open to collaborations with other research groups who want to waste some of their time dicking on Mastodon!

Alright, I kept working on the calculator and I was able to get the OAuth to work!!
Sure, it currently only works with qoto.org, but this was just an experiment to understand how the hell that should work.
I already made it so that it prints the table in a webpage.

Some CSS might help here...

Alright, so here, without a finished software I'll begin my call for help.
I obviously wish not to spend a single euro on this, I believe my time is already enough.

Soooo, does anyone have a server to host it or at least a subdomain to point at my server?
I could definitely put it on my old server, but a subdomain will be required as I would prefer not using my main domain.

I'm working on the development of a calculator.
I wrote the code required to calculate the daily ratio and the ratio over a period.

Now I will have to create a web interface so that anyone can calculate its own and determine who is his Gustavino on Mastodon.

Sample output:

Qoto Mastodon
