## What this is
Every row here was returned by a real run of a public collector. Nothing is generated from a
template over a keyword list: a row exists because a run observed it.
A browsable presentation of the subset that carries an addressable `handle` is published as
7,188 entity pages at [https://reapx.dev/data/mastodon-scraper/](https://reapx.dev/data/mastodon-scraper/), one page per entity. **This dataset is
the larger of the two** — rows whose payload has no field that can address a page are here and
are not published there.
## Provenance
Each row carries `_run_id` and `_dataset_id`, naming the collector run that produced it, so any
row can be traced back to the run that observed it. Rows observed by more than one run are
deduplicated on content; 156 duplicate observations were collapsed.
## Files
- `mastodon-scraper.jsonl` — one JSON object per row, the canonical form
- `mastodon-scraper.csv` — the same rows flattened; nested values are JSON-encoded within their cell
so they round-trip
- `dataset.json` — schema.org `Dataset` metadata
## Loading it
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("reapxdev/mastodon-scraper", split="train")
```
