Richard, with the increasing migration of science Twitter to sites like Mastodon, what are the prospects for adding a Mastodon sharing option, and more importantly, adding Mastodon to Altmetric article metrics in bioRxiv and medrXiv? For obvious reasons, supporting science dissemination by sustainable, non-commercial social media sources seems more important than ever.

Hashtagging the unique part of the DOI should work? Then pressing the Mastodon button on biorxiv can toot the preprint title with the unique hashtag & a link back to the article.

That definitely feels like a reasonable solution. (I'm sure people on Mastodon longer than me must have already put some thought into this.)
