#AcademicSky: Please share w/ your networks these ten tips for academics getting started on the Bluesky social network. I'd emphasize "Use ALT TEXT." And I'd add: Don't be afraid to repost your own skeets. Since people only see posts in chron. order, reposting increases their visibility.
We've written a Researcher's Guide to Bluesky!
It's a bit like all those other useful guides to Bluesky, but with several useful insights from University of York academics about using the platform, and we'd love it if it was reposted far and wide...

Though I couldn’t find a better name, I’ve created this starter pack of scholars working on the "Colonial Transoceanic Hispanophone" and related fields to keep myself updated. Happy to share it with others, just let me know if you'd like to be added!
