Some academic papers show everyone how people are posting about the paper, using a tool called Altmetric. Here's the how our new paper reached folks on twitter vs. bluesky. No comparison. Twitter is gone gone. Deader than the Monroeville Mall in The Dawn of Dead. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Today Altmetric is announcing a major development in collaboration with the Brain Occipital Lobe Learning Observation Centre Kalhausen-Strasbourg.

From today Altmetric will be able to determine what research paper you're thinking of, regardless of what you're actually writing/saying.

The first full year of tracking research on @bsky.app

Hi, we are Altmetric, and we track how research is communicated across the web.

We now have one full calendar year of Bluesky research data and thought we'd have a looksie.

BLUESKY MEGA-THREAD

Altmetric is thrilled and also LITERALLY RELIEVED to officially announce:

We are now tracking research attention as it happens on Bluesky!

We have been picking up posts on the site since late Oct.

Our team is on Bluesky all day answering questions.

Let's get into it!

Pretty wild: I just learned that, in terms of Altmetric, this paper became the most impactful Political Science article of the past five years, and the 4th most impactful EVER. 😳

Altmetric is... well, Altmetric. But still, kind of surreal.
Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵

In the first cross-national comparative study, we examine 32M tweets from politicians.

We find that misinformation is not a general condition: it is driven by populist radical right parties.

Congrats Hideo Kojima, that's a great Altmetric score.

Papers discussed in @cassyni.bsky.social talks will now receive a seminar mention on their Altmetric badges. A seminar mention will carry the same weight as a policy document or clinical guideline.
Altmetric adds Cassyni seminars to research scores
Research talks will now feed into Altmetric Attention Scores, giving universities and publishers a broader view of how scholarly work is discussed.

Altmetric now monitors Bluesky for mentions of research.

Book a demo of Altmetric Explorer here; they're as fun as our Bluesky account:

Goal update - 50%.

And, like basically every climate paper that hits the socials these days, lots of sharing here on bsky and a ghost town on Twitter:

The general trend is crazy. Here is Twitter vs Bluesky volumes for the last week. On some days they are equal in volume.

Bluesky needs to plug into Altmetric in order to gain more traction in academic circles #academicchatter

Weird and wrong beliefs that humanity held onto for way longer than we should have.

These days we enlightened denizens look back on those simpletons and giggling fools of old and tut-tut at their hilarious beliefs.

*Record Scratch*

Here's some stuff we got wrong until recently.
