Fig 1. Weekly volume of Slovenian Twitter data, collected over the three year period.

The retweet network observation window is 24 weeks (blue and red lines), with exponential weight decay (half-time of 4 weeks, green curve), and one week sliding window (difference between the red and blue line). Note a large increase of Twitter activities at the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic, which also coincided with the change of the left-wing to the right-wing government in Slovenia.
