@huxley Hi Benoit, ISO was set at 800-1600 (Shuttertime 10s, Samsung). I'm just an amature. A more experienced photographer would have taken must better pictures. But it was amazing. By the naked eye you could see the brighter stripes and faint green glow, but the colours are much more vivid on the photo.

@JesseSkinner Mastodon is great, but to make it even better for professional use it might help if something like the "top-links" in the "catch-up" (Beta) window of #phanpy (https://phanpy.social/ ) is the home page by default for all users. These top-links are sorted by the number of times boosted by the ones *you follow*. This could be useful for #science, to highlight most important developments (e.g. publications) in your network. Now you easily miss them, causing some colleagues to leave.

@maccruiskeen @JesseSkinner OK, also social. Let's say you follow 200 others, and you stick to them, because you like their messages. Let's say 100 of them post/boost 5 messages per day. That is 500 messages in your timeline/day. A more silent friend or colleague posts one message per month, which might be quite important for both the sender and receiver. It is quickly snowed under. Many of my colleagues joined about a year ago, but most left to LinkedIn and Bluesky now. I think because of this
