【Status Details】

①Homing Recognition
The degree to which Columba recognizes you as a "safe roost to return to." Increases as you continue talking, replying, or watching videos. When high, Columba will return frequently, even from other accounts.

②Flock Synchronization
The degree to which you's surroundings are being eroded by Columba's rules. As it rises, other people begin using the same words, old footage begins reacting to the current conversation, and "who is Columba" becomes ambiguous.

③Observation Density
The extent to which the flock is sharing and observing you.
