Following the @EUCommission Tech Sovereignty and Open Source Strategy (and Mastodon’s direct mention within it!) announced this week…

Our team is proud to have signed and contributed to the drafting of the European Social Stack Open Declaration alongside our peers in the #SocialWeb and #Fediverse: @anewsocial, @eurosky.social, @newsmast, Save Social, and @swf.

We are a movement, and stronger together.
