@alexandrageese as we wrote elsewhere, we're very happy to see more MEPs encouraging more use of
technology... like Mastodon! We were created here, we are an organisation with European values, and we are proud to support the European Commission's presence in the open social web.

@alexandrageese some governments already have their own (testing) Mastodon server. This should be scaled up and supported more widely with best practices and standard guidelines.
Communications with/to the public should at least include this medium.
If you then still want to post/advertise on other channels, sure, you might want to in order to diversify and broaden your reach.
But let's not make it necessary to identify your activity to 1000+ affiliates for each broadcast...
Oh, and no VV

@kkarhan I'm sure the authors (and the @EUCommission) are aware of the existence of the Fediverse, but don't want to promote a specific solution in their letter, even if it is the only one.
However, I wish more of the signatories would use it themselves more actively. Currently I'm only aware of the following:

In my eyes, every single MEP could contribute by using their reach on Instagram, Linkedin, TikTok or even X to move some followers to transparent platforms like Mastodon and by posting there regularly.
Who is to lead the way & give an example, if not clear-thinking European democrats who have teams & a base of followers to support them?

@SLagodinsky@ben_b_here @EUCommission @alexandrageese @nathalieloiseau @martinhojsik @marketkag @anna_cavazzini @mattecke @daniel_freund @SLagodinsky +9001%
Most of them even have paid interns if not social media / content managers to do that for them, so there's even less excuse to not do that!
- After all, it's THEIR JOB to figure out things and do that.
I mean, I've yet to hear of an MEP who does all their social media themselves [whilst being on more than a single platform]…
