@ilumium #ThierryBreton had once a Fediverse #EUVoice account. A pity he didn't keep it.

Well done! This is great to see! At FediVariety we value the impact institutions can have on the promotion of #FOSS

First the @[email protected] spearheaded #EUVoice and #EUVideo and now many many institutions keep the flag high!

Aaand... The opening of the black box continues!

This week, one of the key figures within the European Data Protection Supervisor #EDPS gave us a wonderful interview, explaining us the engagement of different parties in the #EUVoice #mastodon pilot project.

Also, the #EuropeanCommission DG COMM also replied to our #FOIA to access budgets, meeting minutes, and social media strategy briefs.

While we plan other interviews, stay tuned for updates on the upcoming results of our analysis!

Hey folks! Our research on experiences of users and people involved in #EUVoice #EUVideo has reached the next phase!

We are asking access to documents of a long list of #EuropeanUnion Institutions and invited several decision-makers to interview sessions.

If you want to know why the @EUCommission did not adopt the EDPS Mastodon pilot project, stick around!

We are now waiting for replies and we'll keep you all posted

@EC_OSPO Ravi de voir que le déménagement d'instance se soit bien passé !

Je vois que le nom de domaine choisi est très proche de l'ancien.
L'instance pilote social.network.europa.eu devient ec.social-network.europa.eu pour la Commission Européenne.

#EUVoice

Un petit pas per la Comissió Europea, un gran salt per la Fedi.

O no, però el momentum és bastant històric.

Comenten que el servei ara el porta una empresa yanki. De debò? Quina necessitat hi havia? Qui ha pres aquesta decisió? No hi ha gens de transparència en tot aquest procés…

I ni piu de la instància de Peertube… aka #EUvideo

Si és que no es pot tenir tot… En fi, aviam què tal evoluciona la cosa.

Fi del FediPilotEu: un èxit disfressat i dues ironies

Paraules històriques Tot i que no sabem què està passant però intuïm que s’apaguen focs, s’ha d’agrair que, almenys (i per fi), la Comissió Europea reconegui i adopti la Fedi. Veurem com avança la cosa però, de moment, m’ha fet contenta llegir que donen les gràcies a l’EDPS i que es postulin com a node de referència per a qualsevol institució interessada en participar a la Fedi. En fi, tot just comença. Aviam com va, però definitivament, això és històric. I m’he emocionat perquè intuïa que arri...

@jwildeboer @EUCommission Nice. (Hosted by a USA company, sigh.)

Let's see how the other accounts migrate and what happens with Parliament and the other institutions formerly hosted at #EUvoice.

#FediMeta

A quatre dies de xapar els nodes, segueix el silenci administratiu…

Qué trist que MetaFeisbuc es prengui més seriosament la Fedi que la pròpia Comissió Europea.

Em faig creus de segons quins titulars…Jutgeu vosaltres si el FediPilot de l’EDPS ha estat un èxit: ells diuen que sí, jo dic que és un fracàs de l’alçada d’un campanar i no entenc perquè ho disfre...

✅ Stopping after a negative evaluation.
⛔ Stopping after not finding a #mastodon webserver and 2 FTE.

Despite showing courage, I fear that the only legacy that will linger is that no EU institutions, bodies, offices or agencies will, for unknown reasons, put the energy into running a web application that was previously positioned as a thingy to prevent disinformation or just the public values that are needed running a healthy democracy.

EDPS decentralised social media pilot: the end of a successful story

Two years ago, the EDPS embarked on a pioneering journey to launch two social media platforms, EU Voice and EU Video. The pilot project has proved successful in delivering alternative, privacy-friendly and user-focused social media platforms. It is time to review the results.On 28 April 2022, ...

Hey @patrick_breyer_mep as #EUVoice is going to be shutting down, perhaps it's time to add building and maintaining sovereign social media infrastructure to campaign promises for the upcoming #Europarl elections?  

Or is that somewhere there already and I just missed it? 👀
