    Just signed this now, but haven’t received the validation email. For those who have signed it, how long did you have to wait?

    I agree with the petition, but I wish it had mentioned that Twitter hides most, if not all, of an account’s tweets behind a login wall. Same for Instagram for that matter. That’s a strong reason not to use it for government communication.

    Pubic services should use public platforms to share their messages, the private sector can then relay it, or not.

    Governments should never use closed systems for official communication, especially not systems owned by a Nazi

    How can offial government communication use TwitX? Most of us never visit the site.

      Our regional police uses Twitter, and since I don’t, I have to use some complex-ass relay through a third-party Mastodon account that I read through an RSS feed (because I don’t Mastodon, either!)… it’s not cool that official, important messages are put behind the wall of a private platform.

        I think an actual official government instance would be a good idea. Probably Mastodon would make the most sense, since it would mostly be one-way announcements. With federation, easy enough to get that viewable wherever it’s needed.
