I normally put my Twitter @ on my posters at conferences so I can connect with people I meet, or if someone wants to get in touch about my poster later they have an easy, relatively informal way to do so instead of email. Is anyone else considering putting their Mastodon handle on their conference posters?
As I do some last-minute work on my poster for Society for Neuroscience next week, I'm considering putting this with my email address. How about y'all?
Are you thinking of switching servers?
I moved from .social (great, but enormous!) to the friendly waters of .ie (highly recommended, people here are lovely). If you've just set up an account, though, it can feel mystifying.
I wish I'd found this *enormously* useful post by @djnavarro first. See this part on migrating to a new instance:
Torymus sp. chalcid wasp today at the Cambridge Botanic Garden, UK. Despite the large ovipositor, this tiny metallic green parasitoid wasp does not present any danger to its untimely perch, AKA my finger.

Real #introduction time. Hi I'm Dani, a medical lab scientist. I've been on the net since the '80s, so this isn't my first rodeo.
If you don't know what we do, we make doctors look smart. We do all the blood and body fluid testing — #chemistry, #hematology, #immunology, #bloodbank, #flowcytometry, etc. We are the jack of all lab trades.
In my previous life I was in #IT. I love all kinds of #music, #tech, #gaming, #cooking, #metadiscussion about games and media, #ethics, and #geopolitics. My guilty pleasure is #fanfiction.
@Ciaraioch Yes. A true reflection of our real selves.
@DaveFernig Yes. Don't really need that right now, though they've been useful on Twitter once in a while. I assume nothing here is encrypted, except for the transport layer :)
Are any #ProteinDesign folks here yet?
Academics, I am BEGGING YOU when you move on to a new uni please for the love of god leave a forwarding email!
Y'all all moving to a new uni every 5 seconds and your old email just dies. It's probably cleansing, like when a force quit closes 500 tabs, but I'm a tab! Please I want to talk to youuuuuu.
@whynot Guess I'll get used to it. Found the person, followed.
@whynot I'm blind. Couldn't find the search box :) Thanks.
