Dear list,
Following up on Samuel's email regarding the new landscape of social media for science communication, I would like to mention Mastodon as another option worth exploring.
As you may know, Mastodon is a nonprofit, decentralized social network that otherwise functions much like Twitter. In my experience, the only challenge when joining Mastodon is to find and connect with fellow scientists in your field, or more broadly, individuals who share your interests. To address this, I have set up a list of audition scientists on Mastodon (currently empty), which offers an easy way to follow many audition-related accounts at once.
If you are already on Mastodon and want to be added the list, please fill out this form, or send me an email. If you are considering joining Mastodon, feel free to use this tool to follow some or all of the scientists here. Other lists of academics on mastodon are also available here.
Best regards,
Léo
