Does anybody know what the terms/privacy policy of this site is? They don't have anything obvious which makes me a little nervous.

Oh very cool! I wrote about this topic last year and have since been more thoughtful/intentional about who I follow. I wonder how accurate this tool is? 🤔

I don't see why anyone would care unless they were either curious, think it matters whether your followers are male or female which is obviously dumb and potentially sexist or they run a business an need to bring in more money to prevent bankruptcy which is completely understandable unless you abandon your original demographic cause that's just disrespectful.

@scourgethepd hey Scourge, this tool is about who you follow, rather than who follows you. Can help you to diversify the tweets and opinions in your feed if you find your feed is mostly one way or the other. Can help broaden the voices in your own twitter feed, rather than your own following.

It's easy to get stuck in an echo chamber with the way we consume content and comments on social media, if you ever wondered how gender balanced your Twitter feed is -- now you can check with ease. My feed is 57% female, 43% male.

@abadesi wow I'm surprised to discover my feed is only 40% female. Time to balance this out.

Pro : Great initiative! Cons : The suggested accounts at the end is a good idea, but maybe you should add more infos about them (recent tweets or at least the bio). All I see is a picture and a name, and it's not enough to make me subscribe :)

@davidprati This. Also make them based on the people I already follow. I know this is probably harder to pull off. In my case I'd be most interested in women in design / tech / music.

Very good idea. I hope they extend it to ideological and political views. I think that would be the most eye-opening and powerful. Learn what other people are seeing and how their view gets shaped by what they consume. That will hopefully reduce the increasingly polarization we are seeing in the US/Globally.

@uzoayo1 I agree and I would actually prefer to see it based on user content. For example, if the analyzer spits out what topics are discussed by the people that I follow and their associated percentages (e.g tech 89%, politics 10%, sports 1%) ideally with an option to "deep dive" within a category (e.g. in tech: 84% backend, 10% founders, 5% frontend, 1% crypto) and then you could be presented with options within each sub-category of other public Twitters users who discuss those topics (e.g. if I want to follow more frontend devs/thought leaders). It keeps any sort of bias out of it (especially if there is a gender skew on a particular topic) and you could tailor your feed more accurately. Twitter sort of does this with their recommended followers but I would guess that's based on what your friends/other people with similar profiles as yours follow. Just a thought!
