Hello 👋
Welcome to the new Mastodon account for the Science for ME forum. Migration to the new server appears to have succeeded and most followers have been transferred.
Our forum is an independent, patient-led, international forum for people with ME/CFS or Long Covid and the carers, clinicians, scientists and advocates who support us.
Anyone can read the public posts on the forum but to join the discussion you must become a forum member.
You can learn more about our forum here:
https://www.s4me.info/threads/welcome.38181/
If you have any questions, just ask! 😁
But please note that this account is run by volunteers who have ME/CFS so replies may be delayed.

Message for our followers:
This Mastodon account will migrate to a new server tomorrow (Saturday). We're making this change because the med-mastodon.com server is expected to shut down by the end of the month.
https://mastodonapp.uk/@wild1145/116156385290604411
The migration process should automatically transfer all of our followers to the new account. But in case of errors our new account can be found here:

Thanks! ❤️
