Log-log plots showing how different recommendation processes influence the satisfaction of seekers over time. We use the x-axis for the timestep and the y-axis for the average quality-position of the most followed CC (averaged over both users and simulations). Low y-values, thus, correspond to higher levels of user satisfaction. As before, subplot a focuses on the effect of increasing the visibility of low-popularity CCs when starting from the realistic recommendation process (i.e., PA with \(\alpha = 1\)), while subplots b and c look at the effects of further increasing or respectively decreasing the visibility of the most popular CCs
