An observation on how #Mastodon is growing 👀

Over the past month, multiple journalists from top outlets have contacted me related to content I’ve shared.

While this was not uncommon on #Twitter when I was active there, it’s relatively new for me in the #fediverse. I suspect this suggests professional news outlets are becoming more comfortable here & posts have increasing impact. Good.

@Sheril yes, please! I know so many scientists hesitant to leave Twitter and try something. I think some bc they like the science Twitter community. Some because they like their followers. As someone who didn't feel safe in Twitter and left, it's a terrible thing to see all these people who discuss #dei fail to realize they're keeping a toxic place as the best social media for science. 😥
