3 datasets.

Fedivertex: mastodon federation Analyzed

A Fediverse (mastodon, federation graph) dataset of 8,953 nodes, 16,135,522 edges (24 snapshots merged), collected by Damie & Cyffers via weekly crawls over 6 months. Each record contains undirected edges between instances that have ever communicated, with instances.csv providing node metadata. The dataset is notable for its communication backbone graph where nodes are instances and edges represent any past interaction (undirected), showing how servers in the Fediverse are connected at the infrastructure level. Intended for research into decentralized network topology analysis, infrastructure resilience, cross-instance communication patterns, and federation policy impact studies.

Fedivertex: pleroma active_user Analyzed

A Fediverse (pleroma, active_user graph) dataset of 821 nodes, 1,801 edges (24 snapshots merged), collected by Damie & Cyffers via weekly crawls over 6 months. Each record contains directed, weighted edges based on user follow activity across instances, aggregated over time. The dataset is notable for its influence-weighted graph where nodes are instances and directed edges represent user following behavior (weighted by count), showing which servers generate content consumed by users on other servers. Intended for research into information flow analysis, influence measurement, content source tracking, and cross-instance user attention studies.
