Just do what we did in the 00s. Follow those scientists’ homepages and read their bibliographies that show where they cited information from.

IonAddis@lemmy.world 11 months agoThe one big benefit I enjoyed with Twitter was following artists and scientists I would never have had such casual access to learn from in any other way. Being able to watch pros in their fields talk about their topics was something I never would have had access to. And because it’s short form folks were more likely to post than on a blog or something.
Without social media the shop talk goes entirely behind closed doors, which is a loss for my ability to casually learn.

Twitter is also great for announcements. Band you like puts out a new single or album? They’re touring? Twitter was great for that. I used it for that, books/authors, and a handful of other media that was similar where I was waiting for release dates. Mastodon and the others don’t seem to have drawn those entities to them so they aren’t as useful for those things. I don’t really know what can replace it if it doesn’t have the popularity.
