Discover fediverse accounts using Wikidata.
The tool uses the Wikidata query service at https://query.wikidata.org/ to look up accounts with the "Mastodon address" property that inclusively match an occupation. It then renders the results in a table and lets you download them as a Mastodon-compatible CSV file.
- Wikidata information is sometimes outdated
- Taxonomy can be surprising (e.g., anyone who's written an op-ed is an opinion journalist, and therefore also a journalist)
- Notability criteria for inclusion in Wikidata can seem arbitrary
- Not mobile-friendly
- Any and all issue reports and PRs are appreciated
- Would be great to expand the tool with other capabilities, e.g., searching organization types.
