I wrote to about a dozen journalists on Linked who loved to complain about Elon Musk on Twitter. A short paragraph saying about how Mastodon is growing and that the best way to combat Musk power would be by stripping his platform of reputable people.
Zero responses.
Linkedin is a cesspool and nothing but a dumpster fire. I wish I wasn’t pressured to joining it for job searches.
LinkedIn seemed great for me, lots of job listings and it made applying for jobs relatively simple (for the ones that allowed auto-fill)
I hear people post stuff on it but I can’t see why that’s relevant so I’ve never looked at that feature
I’ve been trying to get the non-profit I work for to get off of Shitter and onto Mastadon for months. So far, no good.
Would love to see state and local governments running their own Mastadon servers and not forcing people to accept Twitter/Facebook’s ToS’s and user tracking. I feel like I shouldn’t have to sign away any rights just to keep up with the city’s comings and goings.
I would also love it if they could just post that info on their official website instead of using it as a landing page that points you to their Facebook page 😠
Some national governments in Europe run their own instances. For example Germany runs https://social.bund.de/ and the Netherlands run https://social.overheid.nl. The EU itself has https://social.network.europa.eu/.
All of them have accounts for government organizations and elected officials.
