As we integrate #OpenAlex data into the #Bonfire#OpenScience flavor, we're displaying familiar metrics: works count, citations, h-index, research topics, institutional affiliations...
These might be exactly what you need, or perhaps just a starting point.
What additional information would help you find collaborators or understand someone's work better?
We're opening this design process to the open science community. Share what works, what doesn't, what's missing.

Will there be a possibility to migrate from a Mastodon account to Bonfire, or OSN, as it is possible between Mastodon instances ?

It might be needed to lower the migration barrier and foster Bonfire OSN uptake.

Of course, it comes along with the possibility to migrate between Bonfire, or OSN, instances as smoothly as possible.

Any plans of thoughts on that ?

🚀 New on #TheFutureIsFederated 👩‍🚀

"The Future is Federated: Year 2" - where I take a look back at a year of posts (and some cringy early ones), argue that the #Fediverse is collectivist in nature (as opposed to the individualism of Big Tech platforms) and discuss my plans for the future of this blog series... and what success for the Fediverse looks like to me (spoiler alert: slow organic growth and sustainability)

@_elena Well done Elena, lovely post. I can't wait to hear your feedback on #Bonfire, it's something that has piqued my interest and I am looking for case studies for my own use case(s)!

🌊 Exciting news! Crowdinblue - a mission-led initiative bridging water solutions with funding - has chosen to build their federated community space!
Together, we're designing custom extensions to connect water projects with impact investors and crowdfunding opportunities. All in a federated environment that puts communities and projects first.
Welcome to the Bonfire ecosystem, crowdinblue! 💚

Are you a community, organization or project needing custom features while staying connected to the open web?

Our #Mosaic initiative makes this possible: build your specific tools (open knowledge management, coordination, governance, resource sharing, ...), or integrate your existing tools in your digital space while federating with the wider ecosystem.

Learn how at https://bonfirenetworks.org/mosaic

Your needs, your tools, your community, all connected. 🧩

@bonfire Well… if someone wanted to adapt #bonfire to became something like a #federated #Discord , I wouldn’t say no. 😁

P.S. We're also working with @sciety to help them build a #bonfire flavour specifically for #preprints publications as part of their #nlnet grant: https://blog.sciety.org/sciety-secures-funding-from-nlnet-foundation-to-help-build-discourse-around-preprints/

The fediverse is definitely the right place for open science 🔥
