Fun new feature on Seabird: profiles now display a bird's-eye view of users' posting stats, such as posting frequency, most-shared publications, and diversity of sources. (Live on web, coming very soon to mobile apps.)

Last night we held our first summit of Portland Seabirders, aka the gathering of the gulls. Great to get everyone together in real life! @blueskybeth.bsky.social, @bmortimer.bsky.social, @scarequotes.com, @jacobgrier.bsky.social, and thanks to @reneschiller.com for bringing the table mascots.
