In which case, the headline could be "7% of scientists have moved from twitter to other platforms. Could this be the start of a grand exodus?"
- zzzeek 3y agoThe full headline was too long to post. The headline is: "Thousands of scientists are cutting back on Twitter, seeding angst and uncertainty" I think "seeding" is pretty directly in line with "could this be the start". Plus, they aren't really even getting at any kind of "grand exodus" here. That's not what this article is about. It's about there being no one place that is a clearinghouse for new scientific research to be posted, that is, a fragmenting of the community. so you're correct! they used your idea. but they aren't getting at a "grand exodus" in any case, just the platform itself no longer being an effective place on which scientific researchers would singularly focus .
