Bluesky’s science takeover: 70% of Nature poll respondents use platform
my notes ( ? )
More evidence that science is thriving on Bluesky: "Seventy per cent of [almost 6,000] Nature readers who responded to an online poll are using the social-media platform Bluesky...
- 53% said they used to be on X but have now left...
- 55% of respondents to the question ‘What do you use Bluesky for?’ said ...to connect with other scientists, keep up to date with other research or researchers, and promote their own research...
- 85% said that they were working scientists... 38% ... in biological sciences...
- more pleasant, more supportive, friendlier, kinder, nicer, more collegial, uplifting, more peaceful and safer ... debate there is more measured and more focused... some find Bluesky boring ... fewer “Nazis” ... [but] a leftwing echo chamber ... full of woke crazy people"
