Thunderbird (a community angle) OpenAlt 2025
I am a [community](https://pontoon.mozilla.org/contributors/bogomil/) [contributor](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/user_profile?user_id=359734) and a long-time user of [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/). I want to share with you my vision of what Thunderbird was, is, and will be in the future.

'I requested a guarantee that I could be openly out as a lesbian on stage and perform gay material. I am grateful that I was able to do precisely that — to my knowledge, I am the first openly gay comic to talk about it on stage in SA.

How much are LLMs changing the language of academic papers after ChatGPT? A multi-database and full text analysis
This study investigates how Large Language Models (LLMs) are influencing the language of academic papers by tracking 12 LLM-associated terms across six major scholarly databases (Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, PubMed Central (PMC), Dimensions, and OpenAlex) from 2015 to 2024. Using over 2.4 million PMC open-access publications (2021-July 2025), we also analysed full texts to assess changes in the frequency and co-occurrence of these terms before and after ChatGPT's initial public release.

My talk about #Thunderbird at #openalt might involve a chocolate 🍫. It starts at 14:00. If you are not in #Brno for a good reason, you can watch it online:
