I've not been using Mastodon for a while, but many accounts and people I want to follow are now on ๐ฆ so I'll be increasingly using bsky.app/profile/perayson.bsโฆ plus linkedin.com/in/perayson/ for research posts now
Spent 2 weeks on Mastodon and it is taking off in the #NLProc #corpuslinguistics communities. If Twitter does crash & burn, I will miss the supportive communities and networking opportunities here. Staying until the bitter end, but otherwise catch me at @[email protected]
