Reimagine social media; embrace open science. This hands-on workshop will help you to discover Mastodon, set up your account, and connect with academic peers. Mastodon is a non-commercial, open-source social media platform, offering dedicated research-focused spaces for scholarly connection and discourse.
Following the practical session, we'll have an open floor for discussion. What's the difference between Mastodon and Bluesky? Is it worth adding another platform to your digital presence? Join us to explore these questions over networking drinks.
Bring your laptop and curiosity—leave with a thriving, values-aligned digital presence!
Babette Knauer is head of communications at the University of Groningen Library (UB) where she developed the UB’s Mastodon strategy.
