Figure 4

Proportions of overlapping users who have both liked and commented on the candidates’ posts among “Likers” and “Commentators”. The intermediate vertical axis is a timeline covering the whole period of the election. The bar on the left side of the timeline represents the daily proportion of overlapping users to users who have ever liked. The bar on the right side of the timeline represents the daily proportion of overlapping users to users who have ever commented. The number of overlapping users accounts for less than 1% of all the users who have “liked” on average, with the maximum proportions being 3.51%, 3.74%, and 9.25% for the three candidates. By contrast, the overlapping users constitute more than 37.16%, 14.90%, and 12.03% of all users who have commented, on average, for the three candidates, and the maximum ratios are 73.05%, 59.75%, and 83.01%
