@mycotropic You could look at https://github.com/nathanlesage/academics-on-mastodon

Sadly on GitHub.

@MissWarcraft You aren't really locked into a server. (To be clear: Yes, you can't migrate your posts *right now* – it's being worked on – but you don't loose your network when switching servers as you can migrate you followers and followings.)

@project1enigma @hpod16 @darkoneko This! Besides: Somebody on the Fediverse can also make – in theory – an instance which only allows "certified citizens" (whatever that means).

@stooovie @hpod16 To be clear: "W Social" isn't by the European Commission or the EU as a whole but by a startup and media platform called "We Don't Have Time".

@nelson Mastodon is developed in Germany, Peertube in France.

@lucien @hpod16 I solution for the "Server choosing" problem can be https://fedidb.com/welcome

@exil_inselette Fürs Umstellen des nicht-Windows-fähigen Rechners könnte man die Linux-Helden (https://www.linuxguides.de/linux-helden-karte) fragen.

@SchreibeEinfach Nicht nur alleine Linux. Wenn Daten auf europäischen Servern von US-Konzernen landet, dann kann auch Linux alleine nichts bessern.

@hpod16 @karlos Not only that but the Fediverse (to which Mastodon belongs) also lives of the fact that it don't have a single infrastructure where all activity flows through but multiple smaller to large (sort of) islands that are interconnected.

Like I answer you from my own instance.

@hpod16 @karlos Maybe it's a better point to have the European Parliament on an own instance like how the commission, the CJEU, the parliament and other EU institutions also have their own web sites under the europa.eu domain.

@jmorris @Em0nM4stodon #Bluesky – the company – has verified ICE on 2026-01-17.

@leanderlindahl @janwlrvn @ilumium Not only that but this could also be an personal account – which would make it weird to start from the instance of the European Commission.
