What's to stop Musk, who's already tried meddling with German elections, from seizing Zelenskyy's, or any other European leader's X account, and posting something with dire geopolitical consequences? We're way past the point where it's wise for European leaders and institutions to rely on a presence on X—and other US platforms are not a good long-term solution either. More should follow the example of the @EUCommission and provide their updates directly, without middlemen, through the fediverse.
Indeed. One of the Fediverse's strengths is that, like https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/ any country or coalition could set up an official and hardened server that assures the public of a trusted source of information dissemination.
The time for this is now.
@NoRomBasic @Gargron @EUCommission can you actually view the link you gave? i can't
@elvisvan @NoRomBasic @Gargron click the little globe on the right, you will see posts by accounts on that server
@NoRomBasic @Gargron @EUCommission
The European Commision that are the EU politicians who loves to go to a war (read send our childeren to their dead). In name working for peace but looking after minerals under the dead bodys. A corrupt collection of people busy with corruption and taxes everything for the good of big coperations.
A verry trustworthty thing if you loves corruption and war. There are worst things but that are not saints and more a lie than Santa Claus.

An idea many would surely welcome,

@Gargron @NoRomBasic @EUCommission Back in October 2023 I have advised the European Commission to do & coordinate this. And I have repeated this advice in 2024, January 2025 and February 2025.
They should have done it before the European elections, but the second/best time is yesterday. Momentum is growing. #LetsDoIt
