A really phenomenal scientist I know who does incredible outreach re: diversity in science asked me if I'd recommend mastodon and if it felt safe or if they'd get a lot of hurtful trolling and what the ratio of cost to benefit felt like to me. And I truly didn't know what my answer to that question was until this moment.
I don't like to give advice on how scientists use platforms because I think every audience is different. But my answer to my friend was no, it's not there yet for scientists.

@grimalkina The replies to your post are case in point I guess. I'm glad you're here on mastodon, and your perspective is really useful for meeting other scientists where they are at.
