But their map is wrong.
Here's what Mastodon actually looks like, and what the Fediverse as a whole actually looks like.
@ricci I bet it’s owned by another bunch of techbros. Just techbros not from USA.
Let’s call them ’Eurobros’ because they just want to do a repeat inside Europe of what the neoliberal project managed to make of the US.

@ricci can you point me to a source that "the EU" has launched that network? With a CEO from Switzerland, famously not an EU member?

@jollysea I realize they are not a government entity. But they are using a .eu domain (yes I know basically anyone can get one) so clearly this is the way they're trying to sell themselves

Maybe only tech bro corporate social media sites count.
Not to me 🧡

Comission (that is, the EU-ministers) are. The other branches are not.

@ricci It’s undercounting for sure. I don’t see mine on there for instance. I run GoToSocial.

@ricci I'm not sure if the data in FediDB is accurate.
mastodon.uno has an Italian description but is stated to be hosted in France.

@ricci I think its a good idea to own one's mistakes and make it clear when you edit a post. I agree with you on the substance, they are selling themselves for something they are not.
