This article helped me import my Twitter followers into Bluesky. It’s a huge timesaver. Basically it crawls your followers list and looks for the accounts on Bluesky www.wikihow.com/Import-Twitt...

We strongly suggest that academic publishers and other platforms that host research rapidly implement a Share to Bluesky button for their articles. Here's how: docs.bsky.app/docs/advance... #AcademicSky #HigherEd #Altmetrics
