- Measures Fediverse and Atmosphere concentration using the Herfindahl–Hirschman Index (HHI).
- HHI values: close to 0 = competitive; close to 10000 = monopoly.
- Economic thresholds: <100 = 'Highly Competitive'; <1500 = 'Unconcentrated'; >2500 = 'Highly Concentrated'.
- Focuses on active users' data distribution across servers (Fediverse) or PDSes (Atmosphere).
- Open to other metrics, comparisons, and contributions via GitHub.
