    1. Using Melissa's Bluesky API key, we will be loading 500 posts

      For readers who are not familiar with web development, it would have been useful to be provided with an explanation of what an API is. It is clear that my knowledge of API's was rudimentary at the time of completing this assignment because the API is what allows users to scrape the social media data, and the data would subsequenlty be processed and displayed using a dataframe. Scraping and processing are two entirely separate steps, so saying that the API key "loads' posts, is fundamentally incorrect and would confuse those attemping to recreate my steps.

      Key point: Rudimentary understanding of tools

    2. an essential component of platform capitalism

      I will give myself some grace here, since the instructor marking my work was already familiar with the concept of platform capitalism, so I didn't feel compelled to provide a definition of the term. However, in the future, a more detailed explanation of the theories relevant to my research would strengthen the body of work.

      Key point: Discuss the theories grounding my research in greater depth
