I followed too many starter packs & now I know no one on my feed 😅. Bright side, lots of conservation content.
The research community has flocked to the social-media platform Bluesky.

hey everyone! i made a list of some useful starter packs (primarily biology/earth sciences with a few bonus things thrown in) to share with friends who have joined bsky in the last week and thought it may be useful for some people here too! 🌍🧪 #SciSky #BioSky docs.google.com/document/d/1...
