Our University of Groningen Press colleagues were also at the #DigitalAutonomy Fair today.

At UGP, we work with Open Journal Systems by @PublicKnowledgeProject. We help academic staff take back control of the #academic #publishing infrastructure, for example by supporting them in setting up their own journal.

🆕 Out now: our study on #academic staff engagement on #Mastodon

🔗 Summary
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15582839

💡 While Mastodon is valued for its ethical positioning, continued engagement hinges more on social and institutional dynamics than on technical features alone

➡️Ethical concerns drive adoption
➡️Peer presence matters more for staying than joining
➡️Academic institutions could be game-changers by leading adoption instead of waiting for grassroots growth

PROJECT SUMMARY: Exploring Academic Staff Engagement on Mastodon

This research project explores the role of Mastodon in academic communication. Sparked by a shift away from X/Twitter due to concerns over misinformation and harassment, Mastodon has become a growing space for scholarly exchange. Despite this trend, little is known about how academics engage with the platform. We conducted this study to understand academic staff's perceptions, motivations, usage patterns, and the platform’s potential benefits and challenges. The project employed a mixed-methods approach, resulting in a three-part study comprising (1) a literature review, (2) a quantitative survey, and (3) qualitative interviews. In this project summary, we briefly present the main results.

I recently posted a pre-print about reasoning and large-language models....

trying to get that piece on a pre-print server itself was a bit of a journey which illustrates concerns I've had for the last 18 months or so: namely that AI will kill publishing reform.

here a blog post about it:
