Figure 2. The five suggested performance criteria of social media platforms (large circles) extracted from the six expert interviews. Each smaller circle shows one argument of one expert. For that, each color and each line type indicate one expert (nr. 1 = purple and no line, nr. 2 = yellow and dotted line with view dots, nr. 3 = red and dotted line with more dots, nr. 4 = green and dotted line with many dots, nr. 5 = blue and dashed line, nr. 6 = grey and solid line).
