We just sent out our last tweet for the foreseeable future, announcing that this Mastodon account is our only social media account now.
We have come to the conclusion that Twitter/X is no longer relevant for #SciComm. Our peers are here. Thank you!
Other compelling reasons for quitting Twitter and moving into the Fediverse are given in this petition by @neuSoM: https://www.openpetition.de/petition/online/open-letter-to-the-german-rectors-conference-hrk-on-the-use-of-social-media#petition-main

  Open letter to the German Rectors' Conference (HRK) on the use of social media - Online-Petition
  
  We call on universities and other higher education institutions in Germany to shut down their accounts on X (formerly Twitter) as soon as possible. Their presence on X/Twitter is incompatible with the universities' remit to provide information because disinformation and political smear campaigns are condoned there. At the same time, a presence should be established on Mastodon (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastodon_(Software)) and other Fediverse (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse) server
