This is why I still lurk on Twitter. I Hope to see governments and other similar utility accounts expand to other places, ideally Mastodon, asap.

@mikebz agreed. and that is why i'm taking a moment to contact some of those official accounts and urge them to join mastodon dot com.

what i really would like is some official instances, so we know they are run by govts etc. ..i hope it's not a pipe dream.

@rustoleumlove creating rss feeds of the same information that would’ve been posted to Twitter also seems like a pipe dream. So many local govs still just post things to Facebook.
@mikebz yeah. it's unfortunate and short-sighted. so, sounds about typical 😩
