Join Bluesky and Mastadon
Took them long enough.
There are real risks with relying on a private company, owned by Elon Musk, as a channel for communications
Damn right. Time to fire up a mastodon instance.
The government really should be using Mastodon since it is decentralized and FOSS.
Way overdue. Hope it starts a trend.
This should have started a trend a long time ago, all the gov stuff should have moved to the federation or bluesky(i know...)
bluesky
