It's now basically impossible to log in to @EUCommission portal if you use GNU/Linux or other libre platforms.
The "EU Login Mobile App" is closed-source, which I refuse to install. No passwd or libre OTP option available.
It's a disgrace that the #EU forces their citizens to use propietary, closed source operating systems and applications.
Now we can not update news or releases of #GNUhealth in OSOR/JoinUP/Interoperable Europe until they change this rubbish portal. And we've been there since 2011.

🎤 Keynote Speaker Announcement!

We’re thrilled to welcome Dr @lizziegadd as keynote speaker at Opening Research Assessment on Wednesday, 12 November 2025 (9:45–10:45).

As Head of Research Culture & Assessment at Loughborough University, Vice Chair of #CoARA, and Chair of the #INORMS Research Evaluation Group, Lizzie actively contributes to international discussions on responsible research assessment. In her keynote, “Should we be assessing openness openly or at all?”, she will explore the unintended consequences of current assessment reforms and how we can build fair, inclusive systems that truly incentivise Open Science.

30 editors have resigned from Amsterdam University Press following its takeover by a for-profit academic publishing conglomerate that profits from (open access) fees paid by taxpayer-funded university and research budgets. You can read their letter of resignation on the OMS-Blog: https://mediastudies.hypotheses.org/6850#OpenScience

the International Network of Open Science Communities (INOSC) is exactly what the names says, and growing number of countries around the globe have local Open Science Communities. Several are on the #fediverse and I have set up a #fediwall to track their #openscience news: https://egonw.github.io/INOSC/?hide=replies,boosts

The LMU Open Science Center ( @lmu_osc) runs a hackathon to support the #SciOp#SafeguardingResearch initiative: Rescuing research data that is deleted by the Trump administration.

Bonus: @lavaeolus will give an ignition talk!

📅 Thursday, 2025-08-07, 16 – 19 (only in-person)

To my knowledge, first time that not only prestigious journals, but also prestigious institutions are implicated as major drivers of irreproducibility:

"Higher representation of challenged claims in trophy journals and from top universities"

YES!

"nformation systems that support the documentation and assessment of research activities should therefore, in future and as a common good, be open, freely usable and science-led"

And yet another one in the ever increasing list of analyses showing that top journals are bad for science:

"Thus, our analysis show major claims published in low-impact journals are significantly more likely to be reproducible than major claims published in trophy journals. "
