@Pneumofoils @FediFollows there is always the #histodons hashtag (but the engineers will surely pop up soon)

Thanks...! The hashtag thing should be useful, but I can't see a searchbox to type them into. I've improvised by sometimes tapping on the ones I put in my pinned toot, but 'aviation' brings up a list populated by just my toot...! 'Aerodynamics' does better, but has only shown me toots from people who alight on it in passing. History of Science could be good; I'm likely to mention Phlogiston a lot... And yes, engineers - but they can be a 'mixed blessing'...

hey folks can anyone connect @Pneumofoils with folks who are into #engineering #aero #FluidDynamics - they are trying to find their peeps. Boosts would be helpful - thanks π

There is also @trunk (bot administered by @kensanata ) https://communitywiki.org/trunk/ Please note that Trunk is Opt-In, i.e. who wants to be listed contacts the admins / the Trunk-bot above and will be added - thus listed accounts all expressed desire to be on the list. (I read some objections of people for being added to lists without being asked, so active Opt-In seems favourable)

@FediFollows @kcarruthers Iβm an academic And I just left #Twitter to join here. I hope this is a new place to bring civility, science, and facts to the critically important discussions of our times. |

@FediFollows @kcarruthers
Thanks for circulating this...!
Although STS (science & technology) and History of Science are interesting, my field is specifically Aero
(or fluids more generally)
- is there some way to find a community
(I don't mean a separate server...)
who are talking about that...?
