BlueSky is tracked by Altmetric. Twitter is finally dead to science!



Well...that was a run! I was on Twitter for 11(?) years and Tweeted over 10,000 times. 

Mandatory, obviously. 


It's done, though. Biorxiv won't link your Tweets and I don't see a tab on Altmetric. That increasingly bizarre drug addict killed what was at one time the best device for rapidly disseminating scientific advances I'd ever seen. 

BLUESKY is going to be better, I think. The expertise density is legit and some people are starting to figure out some of the cool features that I haven't yet. 

And!  BLUESKY IS TRACKED BY ALTMETRIC, JUST LIKE THIS WEIRD BLOG!  Wait. What? Sure is! And has been for almost a decade. I don't know why, I just type things here with my nice ergonomic keyboard and my broken brain filters.
