👏 Huge thanks to @EDPS for running the #EUVoice server!
Today, on 9 May, we celebrate our unity and solidarity.
A month ahead of the #EUelections2024 (6-9 June), it is the perfect day to share your wishes for Europe and reflect on which EU you want in the future.
From what I understand, everybody within the @EU_Commission was very happy and supportive of the #EUVoice experiment by @EDPS. Everybody within @EC_NGI is absolutely delighted with the work done by @NGIZero, yet, when EDPS asked what branch of the European Union would take charge of the #ActivityPub presence of the Union, everybody turned they heads away.
Yet, the #EU keeps spending tons of public money on X or Meta. This is #shameful.
There was some hint (or maybe I misinterpreted) of some follow-up for the #EUVoice and #EUVideo pilot.
Nothing concrete mentioned and no further official announcement. Maybe @EDPS could provide more insight if this is indeed the case?
Meanwhile it is HIGHLY ironic that @vonderleyen is a #Xitter mirror operated by Federico Leva in Finland together with numerous other unofficial bridges. Frequently confused with official accounts.
