I think you need to know the difference between "personal" and "scientific" ideas. Personal ideas is something one comes up with without going through any theoretical or experimental test, and hence have not acquire agreement from related experts. On the other hand, an idea is deemed scientific if it at least has gone through consistency test to compare its implication with the other theories or experimental result and it should agree with them.parshyaa said:mainly maths and physics. individual sites will also help

There are several factors to consider when choosing a site to share your scientific ideas. These include the site's reputation and credibility, the target audience and their interests, the type of content you want to share, the site's features and user-friendliness, and the level of engagement and interaction among users.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the best site for sharing your scientific ideas will depend on your specific goals and audience. Some popular options include ResearchGate, Academia.edu, and LinkedIn, but it's important to research and compare different sites to find the best fit for your needs.
It is generally recommended to focus on one main site for sharing your scientific ideas, as this will help you build a strong presence and following within that community. However, you can also share your ideas on multiple sites to reach a wider audience, as long as you are actively managing and engaging with each platform.
Yes, establishing a personal brand can be beneficial when sharing your scientific ideas. It helps to create a consistent and recognizable identity for yourself and your work, making it easier for others to find and follow your ideas. It also adds credibility and authority to your work.
Yes, there are some potential risks to consider when sharing scientific ideas on public sites. These include the possibility of someone stealing or misusing your ideas, receiving negative feedback or criticism, and potential conflicts with your employer or collaborators. It's important to carefully consider the risks and take precautions such as copyright protection and carefully managing your online presence.
