Took them long enough, but yay!
Yaaaaaaay! Thats so cool! ☺️☺️
Can I follow the Commission on Mastodon via Lemmy?
You can’t follow users from Lemmy. Only groups aka communities.
Well you can see their account on Lemmy, but it shows as empty: @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu
I think you couly only see posts if they were made to a Lemmy community.
But maybe you can follow the account from a Piefed or kbin instance?
It might be empty because your instance doesn’t get posts by that account, iirc it starts when someone follows the other account. In other words, if no one on your home instance is already following them, your instance doesn’t have their old posts. I might be wrong though.
🥲
Wow, are you @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu the first government to do this?
Not with respect to having an account. This one is “May 15th, 2024”
Germany’s government was “Dec 23, 2022”. I don’t know about others.
Excellent!
I had filed an EU Ombudsman complaint about the European Parliament incessantly pushing X and other US big tech platforms on its website.
Lead by example 👌
