Certainly less involved in social media use for science since the days of Twitter (hoping this can change here), but my impression would have been that LinkedIn has become the no. 1. This I would like to change too ^^; find the formality of LinkedIn hard to stomach sometimes.

Agree. Also english as second language, and i see someone already mentioned people briefly zoning out.

I tend to only show any bullet point at the moment I am discussing it, to avoid disconnect between what I am saying and where the attention should be focused on the slide (the main problem imo).

Literally my reaction to a review request 30 minutes ago, after telling myself for sure no more reviews for a while 😄

I got there in the end too after they sent me a personalized submission link, so all good.

And yes, not so unexpected ^^. Trying to submit last minute abstracts on overloaded servers is one of my specialties 😆.

another similar msg suggesting email will be sufficient to confirm submission still possible (assuming their servers are loaded right now).

fyi, lots of people experiencing issues with waiting room infinite loop (myself included).

On Twitter (X), they are saying to email them with User ID and Session to ensure you can submit (i am assuming this will be after the deadline now, but email acting as proof of intention). Example below.
