Together with Frank Sonntag I have created a new Mastodon instance: FediScience, a friendly place where scientists can let their hair down.
There I will write about my work about the quality of climate data at a scientific level in English. https://fediscience.org/@VictorVenema
This will be/stay my private, sometimes German and local (#Bonn) account.
There is now a Mastodon instance for publishing scientists: FediScience.
Everyone is welcome from PhD student to professor, as well as researchers from outside of academia. You are welcome to stay afterwards, but it is also easy to change to another server.
There will be a lot of science talk on this server, but there is no need to only talk science

Boosts are appreciated to let others know about this new instance.
@VictorVenema
Nice! Any plans to collab with scholar.social?
@pettter What kind of collaboration are your thinking off?
@VictorVenema
They are running a summer school with online talks by researchers in a little while for example.
@VictorVenema I did not notice this was 1 year old when I messaged earlier. 😅
@maloki It is a strange post. Sometimes someone boosts it and it explodes again.
@pettter @VictorVenema I was just about to request: Please be well moderated.
And I feel like @socrates take on how to run a scholarly server is a very good one.
