It is now painfully clear that no local government, state or federal agency, or other civic institution should be using Twitter for any purpose other than directing people to alternative platforms.

Using the platform for anything other than a last ditch backup for any kind of emergency communication is clearly a disaster waiting to happen.

@ct_bergstrom yeah it would be great if all those accounts migrated to the fediverse, or at the very least used RSS for important communications. The current situation is quite perturbing.

@trobador only if they self-host these instances, though. IMHO.

Because even with Musk as boss, Twitter is in essence more durable, and reliable, than a server run by an overworked, volunteer enthusiast.

@berkes oh 100%, in the same way they already manage their own websites. The European Union already does this, for example: @[email protected]
