@inquiline really enjoyed this, in so many ways! Great to have an analysis of, and a term for; #LossyDistribution. And the case study works brilliantly. As does the auto ethnographic approach!
It’s really important to discuss how #HashtagActivism is curtailed here; as well as how different hashtags in general fare here. Thinking also about the #ClimateDiary project. It frustrates me that - as I only realised about a year in - that I can’t see all posts. 1/2
@inquiline 2/2 this should really be changed at systemic level, but in the interim, might asking people to boost at least one post with a hashtag before using it themselves help? As far as I understand it, a connection and hence visibility is there once there has been a boost; or is it only following eaxh other? I have forgotten. #LossyDistribution
