Finding those accounts who follow immediately after publishing a post by @crokkon [Analysis]
Not all analyses answer questions. They can either open questions or provide answers. In this contribution by @crokkon, he looked into a number of accounts that immediately followed authors after the latter made a new post. What made this contribution stand-out was its uniqueness and its attempt to answer users’ concerns. In addition to this, he provided the readers with easily understandable charts to visualize the results and supplemented these with explanations.
