abadidea“the EU government servers are melting under the load of mastodon users going absolutely nuts with enthusiasm for civic participation” is a great problem to have 😂
Epic Null@0xabad1dea Americain here who doesn't want to make the problem worse - what's going on?
@Epic_Null citizen's petition to ban conversion therapy in the whole EU about to hit one million signatures hours before the deadline
@0xabad1dea ah, sweet. I saw that petition going around a few times, but momentum on it was a little slow
Graham Sutherland / Polynomial@Epic_Null @0xabad1dea it really picked up at the last moment. it's been averaging 400 signatures per minute most of today.
🔥 Mireille Sillander 🔥@Epic_Null @0xabad1dea the best part is that the petition was originally created a year ago. It hovered at 290K this past Tuesday. Then people perked up when the urgency that the deadline is tomorrow hit and its gotten over 400K signatures since yesterday
