I still cannot believe how much more talkative & friendly folks are on this site compared to Twitter. People are ACTIVE over here and PLEASANT and they ENGAGE it's WILD

Every scientist I know switched over. It happened so fast I was surprised. ScienceTwitter no longer exists which was one of the nicer places back there.
I love that the community has adopted "Skeet" as it's verb and refuses to let go of it. I think it'll be a while before mainstream media feels comfortable talking about what happens on this platform the way they did on Twitter. Hopefully that'll keep this place artificially small and weird and nice.
It almost reminds me of "old internet" before it became 4 websites. Nostalgia goggles obviously make us all unobjective but small sites when you would be civil because the forum only had 70 members and you saw the same people posting had this kind of energy.
It's great. I'm doing my best to keep it that way for myself and others, engaging positively and making use of blocking a bit more liberally that I did in the past.
Great to have you here and posting!
I never once had Twitter in my life but I wanted to give this a shot to be a part of the "new" internet. So far I'm having a casually pleasant time without stress and toxicity! Also, welcome 🤗

There’s nothing being pushed or incentivized. It’s just a space to be
