Comment on Bluesky now platform of choice for science community

Comments

Among all the major technical benefits of Bluesky over Twitter listed in the article, I'd add two more:

* links to external web pages (your paper, your blog, your new dataset, etc.) won't cause your posts to be suppressed

* Bluesky discussions are accessible to the open web

These two features are absolutely essential for science, and perhaps if X was more like Twitter on free speech and openness to the web then scientists wouldn't have moved away.
