FINALLY! I wish more would get over here.

"Nature reached out to over 170,000 scientists who were, or still are, users;

nearly 9,200 responded.

More than half reported that they have reduced the time they spend on the platform in the past six months &

just under 7% have stopped using it altogether.

Roughly 46% have joined other social-media platforms, such as Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads & TikTok."

@justyourluck it was difficult for me to quit but I don’t regret it. And yes, we need more scientists over here. I’ve found a lot on threads btw.

@TxScientist

It was such a good place for info, I still have my account and lurk because there of the stragglers who still post good info, but I never never tweet anymore. Glad you've made it over. Hope more make the switch. Good to know about threads.

@justyourluck Cue bump in scientific productivity…
