- Reminder for the #exoplanets feed:
- Important news about the #exoplanets feed: We have removed the planet emoji as a way to post to the feed. Consistently, around ~50% of the posts to the feed are false positives, as 🪐 is a really common emoji. You can still post to it with #exoplanets!
- Important news about the Stellar Astronomy feed: we have removed #stars as a way to post to this feed due to false positives - as with the other subtopic feeds, it's only intended for scientific posts! You can now only post to it with #stellarastronomy or #stellarastro.
- Important news about the Milky Way feed #galactic: We have removed the hashtag #milkyway as a way to post to the feed, as it was causing a huge number of false positives. The hashtags for the feed are now just #galactic or #galacticastro. As a reminder, the feed is intended just for science posts!

- 📌 We have a new feed aimed at professional astronomers! 📌 The AstroSci feed is just for science posts, and you can post your smoking hot research there with the comet emoji ☄️ AstroSci crossposts back to the main Astronomy feed, and all subtopic feeds post into it too. 🔭
