Social media, and specifically Twitter, has been a huge part of growing the Open science community. We've taught and written about Twitter a lot in the past.

Mastodon is a social network platform that is free and open-source. It's been around for quite a while, but many folks migrated there from Twitter. Twitter has tweets; Mastodon has toots.
