I just visited the website of the European Data Protection Supervisor @EDPS and noticed that they have a @Mastodon icon / link in their social media navigation bar in the upper right side of the screen.

This is simply AMAZING!!!

Thank you so much for being here on the #fediverse and for raising awareness about it with your website visitors ❤️

@EUCommission can you please be next? I argued for this in my latest article: https://blog.elenarossini.com/openness-transparency-and-reach-three-reasons-why-public-institutions-should-embrace-the-fediverse/

@_elena @EDPS @Mastodon @EUCommission two out of six icons are european, one out of six icons represent a decentralized, open source social based on ActivityPub that cares about its users. Well, that's a start!

@dunklecat I've been doing a deep dive into the 7 official European institutions to see how many have fediverse icons in their social media navbars. Not looking good... it may be my next article, le sigh.

A special award goes to the European Central Bank, which has links to all the usual offenders PLUS SoundCloud... but no Fedi profile

@dunklecat thank you! 🥰 I’m currently working on my next YunoHost post about maintenance (not the most glamourous topic, but needs to be done) 😅
