These lists involve a *lot* of reading nominees, discussing what to keep and cut in writing and meetings, distilling books into annotations...
I'm proud of our group and the work we did, is what I'm saying.
@Durff think of the different Mastodon servers as email providers…you can get any one you want, and communicate with folks from any other Mastodon server.
Instead of Outlook, or Hotmail or Yahoo, you get Gmail, Proton, or Tutanota…but they each offer their own features. Anyways, you chose wisely. Now, you just need to learn the rest.

This now iconic video by Stephen Morris shows how a domino can knock over another domino about 1.5x larger than itself. A somewhat surprising mechanical chain reaction

@ryanschultz @theexplorographer@mindly.social i agree Ryan. No doubt, the culture will change here, one way or another.

The pace of changes at Twitter over the weekend was not only challenging to keep track of & process, it was also very surreal. Evidence we are better off with a federated, open source communication platform. But of course I can’t name or link it on Twitter, or I’d risk a ban?! Crazy.

🤯 I wrote about how I got students' heads spinning and thinking about vocabulary with spinners and a chatbot.
totally digging the Twitter archiver that @darius made. dump your Twitter feed, give the archiver your .zip, and it creates a browsable website of your account -- you can share old tweets, search them, etc. i was able to dump mine & completely hollow out my account in like 2 seconds

Hellooo Mastodon!
Just migrated over here and wanted to give a brief #introduction - I'm a molecular biologist and data scientist working at EMBL in Heidelberg. I work on analysing and managing single-cell transcriptomics data, train other scientists in bioinformatics and research data management and I am a science communicator with way more projects than time!
Excited to connect with peeps over here :)
Great point. #twitter can no longer serve as a home for reasonable #Journalism #journalists , and in fact not for reasonable users in general. Electing Twitter as the platform of choice is an endorsement. Don't do it.

@Richard @edutooter @edutooters F-Droid , haha, how many folks know how to do that? 🤣🤣 And, I already paid for it.
@Durff Dr Durff woohoo!!! You made it!! Here are some tips- https://www.mguhlin.org/2022/12/mastodon-tips-creating-joining-guppe.html
@davidstalane@mastodon.social @maggiek @edutooter @edutooters Easier to ask someone you trust.
@pwinn Yes, incredible. My wife said it made her cry. I was captivated by curiosity, waiting to see how it worked out.
@dougholton Thanks for sharing that. I will add it.
@mguhlin One other resource I ran across recently is this spreadsheet which lists the top 100 or so Mastodon servers, along with whether or not they are currently accepting new registrations https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hN-0bNfjaV7UTuLP6eudmXCNNPdeNQoFtbfcqxl4FFQ/edit?utm_source=pocket_mylist#gid=0
