FTA: “If you appear with your scientific contents between videos of cats,” she says, “it’s not a particularly good medium for promoting yourself professionally, anyway”.
That's how I've always viewed Twitter.
Is Mastodon a replacement? I don't know. I see HN as the social media for programmers. It may not be perfect, but it's been better than the alternatives so far. I figured the other professions would have something similar to HN?

Seems like a great way to get your ideas noticed by a wider audience, increase scientific literacy of the general populace, etc. Maybe you don't want it to be your only outlet, but it seems like a beneficial one to use.
