new release of #Fedialgo, the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed, counts the number of times each hashtag appears in your timeline even if people don't use a "#" character to give you a better sense of what people are talking about in the Fediverse.
there's a little bit of art vs. science here because some strings are disqualified from this kind of counting (e.g. a word like "the" should not be counted even if some maniac decided to make it a hashtag) so let me know if you see any weirdly high counts.

Today, @richardfontana & I restarted, relaunched, & revitalized copyleft-next.
All versions & variants of #GPL are great licenses. But, today, #GPLv3 turned 18 years old & #GPLv2 turned 34 years old.
At least once in a generation, #FOSS needs a new approach to strong #copyleft.
These posts have details: https://lists.copyleft.org/pipermail/next/2025q2/000000.html & https://fedi.copyleft.org/@next/114769761806288554
I ask you to follow @next & check out our website at https://next.copyleft.org/.
FYI: I'll migrate this account to @bkuhn@copyleft.org later this week.
