Twitter dataset - Generic Users

The Generic Users datasets contain ego-centric interaction data from X (formerly Twitter) users in Italy, Brazil, and the Netherlands who use the platform for general, non-professional purposes. Collected via snowball sampling between May 3 and June 4, 2023, and filtered to exclude bots and non-local users, the datasets include thousands of egos and millions of interactions. They offer a rich foundation for analyzing culturally grounded patterns of social structure and sentiment in everyday online communication.
