#Mastodon is pulling ahead of the other social-media platforms I've been exploring. As a sign of seriousness, I just added my Mastodon handle to my #Twitter bio.
I also added it to my home page.

I will definitely keep one foot in Twitter. But I'm also looking forward to growing the #openaccess, #openscience, and #scholcomm community here in Mastodon.

👋 Hi all. I'm moving in here. I'm a librarian committed to open science and scholarship in all its dimensions, studying and stimulating innovations in scholarly communication. Currently spending quite some hours on DIAMAS, a European project on diamond/institutional publishing, see http://diamasproject.eu/.
I already see quite some familiar faces here and am looking forward to meet new people.

Are you using Mastodon through a computer?
Do you wish there was a multi-column TweetDeck-style interface?
There is! It's called the "advanced web interface" and you can activate it any time you want. It lets you add many specialised columns, subscribe to hashtags and all kinds of stuff suited to large wide displays.
Log into the website, go to Preferences > Enable Advanced Web Interface, tick the box and click "Save Changes".
(To restore the default single column interface, do the same thing but untick the box instead.)
This used to be the default interface on Mastodon, and very old articles about the platform will have screenshots of the multicolumn interface.

The #Django Software Foundation is inviting applications to join its Board of Directors.
Applications are open until November 4th, take a look and have a run if you are in position to do so!

@pkoppenburg You can also try fediscience.org which is a good home for academics. Of course you also morally belong on scipost.social 😉
#Introduction I'm professor of #Physics (condensed matter; low-dimensional quantum systems) at the University of Amsterdam.
With this account, I'll be tooting about #SciPost and its efforts to implement #GenuineOpenAccess, i.e. a more accessible, equitable and affordable #OpenAccess infrastructure for #AcademicPublishing.

@stragu @OpenScienceFeed Yes I've defined a few accounts (you probably want to start with the @edadmin one, and then @physics etc), we'll soon start tooting SciPost-related stuff from those. Just need to teach the team how to toot first!!
@OpenScienceFeed @GrassrootsReview Keep going, sometimes it takes *years* for things to catch on. I'm quite curious where we'll all be in 5 years. Building new systems is the key!
@OpenScienceFeed Thanks for your welcome again, it's really kind!
And yes absolutely, I agree that the #Fediverse has immense potential for #OpenScience, the distributed model is just brilliant.
Kind of ashamed I didn't start this SciPost-maintained instance before now, the developments of the last couple of weeks indeed finally pushed me over the edge!
@OpenScienceFeed thanks a lot, the Fediverse is really a great galaxy to join, all the more since you people are a big part of it!
If you need a quick intro into Mastodon and federated microblogging, take a look at https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/08/mastodon-quick-start-guide/
Just gave the kiss of life to this new site.
Let's make it good!
