That is encouraging indeed for mastodon.

I've noticed an uptick again in folks joining my server, so I think it would be timely for sure.

I did the same and grabbed my username. I don't get it, but 90% of my colleagues went to bsky not mastodon.

Anyhow, on making the fedi-friendlier,
a question: for scientists listserves, I point scientists to this to get started on mastodon https://nathanlesage.github.io/academics-on-mastodon/#curated-account-lists

But many of these accounts are largely inactive. Do you know of a way to highlight active scientist accounts (I know you have some tools for id'ing active accounts)? Or do you know of any better resources?

My friend Rosa Yolanda Pineda has organized an event to get more folks CYCLING in Uptown Manhattan on an Open Street.

If you have never ridden a #bike before— and #nyc is an admittedly challenging place to learn- come uptown and have fun with friends in a car-free #NYCbike #bikeNYC zone. Its an #urbanists delight.
