Ich ziehe grad meine Publikationen zu #hcommons um ( Vorschlag von @[email protected] ) - nach academia.edu, researchgate, dem eigenen blog, der uni-homepage ... aber auch hier kommt die Plattform doch aus den USA, oder? Warum ist das 'sicherer' oder 'freier' als der andere Kram?

For Open Access Week, Humanities Commons has unveiled remarkable plans for 2024 in "What Is A Repository For?" at https://building.hcommons.org/2023/09/26/what-is-a-repository-for

Like the migration from Twitter to Mastodon, I would like to find that Humanities Commons - in my case: https://hcommons.org/members/stevemccartyinjapan (with nearly 10,000 downloads) - does better than ResearchGate - https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Steve-Mccarty (31,600+ reads) - or AcademiaEdu - https://wilmina.academia.edu/SteveMcCarty (31,500+ views) in connecting repository content with researchers and other readers, interactively. Perhaps browsing is more convenient than downloading, and commercial outfits have a stronger imperative to connect people.

Humanities Commons has many genres to select from, and I have uploaded content in 24 academic and creative categories. Successful research grant proposals seem like another possibility, and a research diary format would suit our India-Japan project on humanizing online educational experiences.

What Is A Repository For? – Building the Commons

Love this piece in which @ianscott talks about the tensions and challenges in building a modern repository system for Humanities Commons #hcommons

https://building.hcommons.org/2023/09/26/what-is-a-repository-for/

Mirrors a lot of our thinking about how to support a diversity of research outputs, particularly with their use of #invenioRDM from #Zenodo which is our goto recommendation as a generalist repository

The Humanities Commons mascot made an appearance at the Detroit Zoo this weekend!  

The Zoo currently has an exhibit called Brick Live, which is Lego but not using the Lego name to avoid royalties. 😆 It was really cool, with a bunch of Lego animals of all shapes and sizes. #lego #hcommons #platypus

@julia I think it’s quite natural for different instances to have different approaches here. Many instances exist as clubs, providing a space for people with more or less similar interests and identities.

I do think, however, that an instance devoted to the humanities and higher education needs to have a very high threshold for blocking entire instances. I would definitely hope #hcommons takes a fairly hands-off approach and lets users decide for themselves if we want to block Threads or not, as @scrivenersmith suggests.

I do not trust Meta (or any of the big tech companies, really) in the least, but nor do I think we should block them on principle as long as there are users on those platforms that some of us find worth connecting with.

Folx, what's a good server to set up an account for a #DigitalHumanities project? Are #HCommons and #FediHum more for individual researchers? Recommendations for a #ScholComm instance?

I am really glad I moved to hcommons.social – there's much more that interests me in my local timeline. Mas.to is a great server but it's so diverse that I didn't easily find new people that I wanted to follow or engage with. This shows the benefit of switching to a more focused server.
