Just discovered Manubot, a new collaborative writing platform, and it looks amazing. Has anyone tried using this #foss project? Wondering how well it integrates with Quarto, if at all. Interested in tools for collaboration? The computational biologists have you covered! #fediscience #rstats #Python #Quarto

Testing testing... the Utterances project for GitHub-authenticated comments is up-and-running on my blog, but never had much uptake. Anyone had good experiences with Utterances/other system? Interested in best practice for comments with #foss powered comments. Live demo, in prep 4 talk 2mo in anyone wants to give it a spin: https://www.robinlovelace.net/talk/keynote-geocomputation-reproducible-research-and-open-tools-to-inform-the-transition-away-from-fossil-fuels/

Just opened a new issue in our #geocompx #RStats repo with the "good first issue" tag. Never put in a PR and want to? This could be a good place to get started, as it's a super easy one: https://github.com/geocompx/geocompr/issues/982 Let's make #opensource inviting and friendly(er)!

Fascinating thread on unusual geographic attributes of Poland. Just in time for #OpenGeoHub. Check it out @opengeohub ! https://fosstodon.org/@opencage@en.osm.town/110955526416115975

I'm super stoked about the recent #Fosstodon announcement. Ideal recruitment opportunity and have bigged it up on the other site. Let's see if it generates an influx of new users + donations 🤞 Huge credit to @kev + team for being democratic and asking the community. Happy to moderate in En a Es, when I get more time!

When I joined #fosstodon it had 30k users. Now has 60k users. And the quality of content, moderation, and general vibes are great. Community is taking off, and if you're into something else, there's an instance for you 🚀

Results of another uncontrolled proprietary vs #opensource social media experiment are in. #fosstodon aced it 🚀 The level of engagement on this community is amazing. I got 350 responses on the #opensource social media option with 60k people in the #foss todon instance, vs 230 on the proprietary option with ~600m.
~10,000x more engagement per person!
