@Gargron I can see people are unwilling to leave that other site because they have such a large reach. Most everyone I follow there are climate scientists of which a few created accounts here but then abandoned them. I don't think they will jump ship over there until they can reach as many here.

@MichaelBishop @Gargron reach and interaction is very different. Twitter may have better 'legacy' reach but my experience here is better interaction.

@KilKerrin @Gargron that may be true but in the case of climate scientists, like many others, they are just trying to get in front of as many eyes as possible. There are far fewer eyes here compared to the other site.

True, but climate scientists are more likely to attract negative attention and death threats on Twitter vs. here. It's going to get to the point where the only audience on Twitter is the type of audience that isn't going to listen to scientists anyway, and it will be like they are screaming into the void. In fact, it's probably pretty close at this point, but I wouldn't know because I left that hell hole months ago.
