       Elon Musk and X are once again proving why institutions should never rely on corporate-owned, centrally-controlled social media platforms to reach their people.https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0589g0dqq7o

       Today we are calling on institutions around the world to take control of their #DigitalSovereignty, including their social accounts. Governments should communicate directly with their citizens on open platforms, not through the mouthpiece of a corporation.https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/12/the-world-needs-social-sovereignty/

       If you care about digital sovereignty and want to see your government join the #fediverse, contact them to say that #ItsTimeToAbolishX. Help us make a list of how to get in touch with a representative in your area under this post, and don’t forget to #hashtag so your neighbours can find it 👇🏽 we’ll start: #EU: https://commission.europa.eu/about/contact/representations-member-states_en#USA: https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials

       @Mastodon There is a problem with verification. The current system is suitable for those who have a recognizable website and that's it. Fraudsters can verify the eloonmuskcom website for themselves, while people without a website (or whose website is not recognizable) cannot verify anything.Mastodon should copy the system from Discord. I think there should be a way to verify accounts from other services (Spotify, YT, Steam/GOG, Instagram)

       @Mastodon While it would be nice to have a way to avoid X, the crux is that lots of people are just migrating from one silo to another instead of adopting the Fediverse. And the officials are the regular people too.

       @Mastodon While I support this initiative I do believe it is up to Mastodon to proof itself. People I talk to think Bluesky is the easier alternative. That said the federated structure should appeal to government agencies and somebody should say they are at least obliged to provide coverage

       @Mastodon remember when responsible companies and government entities that needed communications have their own websites with links to a web interface on a bulletin board system, which could also be reached by modem, and their own forums for feedback and email response forums?  That was cheap, that was easy, and it was almost universal. Why the heck did that go away?
