Amongst many things that #musk broke because he wants more #money is #RSCPoster competition that is held on Twitter each year. The idea is simple, make a poster, add some #hashtags and show off your science!
There is no #chronological order to #events. Finding who tweeted new #science this year is impossible and #popular or forced tweets have flooded my #timeline with mainly tweets from #2020 #2021.
@drupad I concur! I’ve been a session chair for many years and told them that I’d be happy to participate again this year if we used mastodon. They replied that they wouldn’t.
@borduas I’m on general committee this year but it’s taking so much more effort to find relevant tweets. It might be that some will get no traction because Twitter will bury them as noise. People retweeting and liking posts from previous years has made it worse. We will see how it pans by the time 24h are up.
@drupad sorry to hear. The bird site is a different platform altogether now.
