Mastodon friends! 🇪🇺 I’m expanding my digital presence to advocate for a stronger, tech-independent Europe. I've just joined Bluesky via Eurosky!

​If we want a sovereign EU as a global power, we must own our digital public square. Let’s build a united European network. Follow me there and consider converting your handle to Eurosky to secure our digital borders! 🚀

​🇸🇪 Ett suveränt EU som maktfaktor med fokus på handel, digital styrka och ett robust försvar. Sverige som drivkraft. 🇬🇧 A sovereign EU as a global power. Focus on trade, tech and a robust defense. Strong nations in a united EU.

​@ikuturso @mastodonmigration I appreciate the pushback! You're right that Eurosky relies on Bluesky's infrastructure today. But the core idea is long-term portability. By securing our data on a European PDS and our identities via DIDs, we are no longer owned by a corporate platform. If the company changes, we seamlessly move our network elsewhere. It’s a pragmatic first step: we get the mass reach of Bluesky today, with a built-in exit strategy for tomorrow. 🇪🇺

@StefanAlvemo I don't see it as much of a first step and because there are pragmatic real solutions like joining a Mastodon instance in Europe.

It seems actively harmful when I see tons of people being misled and thinking they're somehow now fully digitally sovereign.

The "exit strategy" thing is a whole another can of worms even more broadly speaking. A new PDS definitely doesn't meaningfully make that idea more feasible in any significant way versus being on the US company's PDS.
