This study departs from previous investigations by considering the sociotechnical aspects of platform algorithms in female climbers' efforts to remain visible online, and attempts to avoid controversy that can deter followers. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
