It finally works! 🤞🏼
Here is a table of more than 1000 journalists on #Mastodon, that updates itself – showing the ones most active, most followed etc. I took the wonderful table by @tchambers as foundation, but deleted some media organizations, so that it only contains accounts from people.
I want to make another for media accounts (and maybe even more 🤔).
Have a look!
Well, let's see if it breaks this time 😉
I hope, that some will find this helpful. But to be honest, I am a bit embarrassed, at how I got this to work: I'm using the account @JournalistsOnMastodon: It follows (or better tries to follow) this accounts:

A modified version of this script (https://blog.tomaszdunia.pl/mastodon-api-followers-following-eng/) by @to3k then regularly creates a table, containing the details of all the accounts. #GoogleSheets grabs this and creates two versions of the table.
