There is now a Mastodon instance for publishing scientists: FediScience.

Everyone is welcome from PhD student to professor, as well as researchers from outside of academia. You are welcome to stay afterwards, but it is also easy to change to another server.

fediscience.org/invite/j6X8z7q

Boosts are appreciated to let others know about this new instance.
