@_elena @EUCommission Upps... -1 😁

@_elena @EUCommission I never understood why there are algorithms in social media at all. Why don’t I simply see the posts of people I follow in a chronological order. That makes the perfect social media tool

@_elena @EUCommission this post got (when writing this) 865 stars and 694 boosts, which is very nice. I'd also like us to give the commission credit for posting on Mastodon. 👍

If we want to help them further we can provide feedback and ask for this change at the bottom of their page where it says "give us more feedback". If they get ~1000 comments about removing X and adding Mastodon to the footer, I'm sure it'll help the web team get the greenlight to do it. #LeaveX

@_elena @EUCommission Mastodon is a celebration of European ingenuity, vitality, innovation and resilience. How many other power blocks in the world have their own free, open, federated social media? I count zero.

@_elena @EUCommission there are very few websites with Mastodon icons. Including #theguardian #commonweal #thenational and government petitions. Wonder why that is..

@_elena @EUCommission I add my concern: talking about "people before algorithm" then having your main web page linking American algorithm-based platforms. And yes, I understand the situation about traffic, you might have higher visits in your American social networks but IMHO you should gradually start switching.
Only issue I notice, is that those platforms tend to hide fediverse-related contents.
