Social Sci (27%) and Arts & Human. (31%) lead the exodus; Med & Health lag (13%).
Twitter signals (followers, PageRank, posting) predict migration better than h-index or citations.

Political expression of academics on Twitter - Nature Human Behaviour

An analysis of ~100,000 academics finds that a small subset of academics generate majority of social media posts.
That vocal minority can skew how the publicβand even journalistsβinfer βacademic consensus,β potentially fueling false perceptions. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Some interesting insights here, including that people are much more influenced by *people they follow* switching platforms than by their own *followers* switching platforms.
