Back from @uio.no where I presented the Democratic Situations book for the Voicing Democracy group and had a great meeting in the EvaluNation project led by Hilde Reinertsen at @unioslo-svfak.bsky.social. Thanks for super discussions to everyone I met at the seminar, and over drinks and food!

Blueskyโ€™s science takeover: 70% of Nature poll respondents use platform Roughly 6,000 readers answered our poll, with many declaring that Bluesky was nicer, kinder and less antagonistic to science than X.

In case your colleagues or institutions still require convincing: the academe is now on Bluesky.

Important to highlight these network effects.
