Somebody tell him to use Mastodon
Actually, the German government was one of the first public entities adopting Mastodon as a secondary communication channel when shit hit the fan with regard to Musk and Twitter:
Here is their official Mastodon account!
That’s really cool 😎 ! today I learned something new
But that’s the account of the Federal Government. The Kanzler himself still has his official account on X and has none on Mastodon.
Smart. Smarter would be not using X, but a lot of people still use X.
Why not just post on his website directly
With how reliant governments are on privately owned social media platforms I sometimes feel some open source social media platform should be run as a public utility so that public communications are at the mercy of wealthy megalomaniacs though I don’t know how that would work in practice.

That’s great.
I was researching a fire the other day for work, just wanted to verify basic facts. Local FD posted incidents on Twitter. Nope. Couldn’t manage to view it. That’s bullshit. They absolutely should not use it for that reason and to boot helping a megalomaniac make money.
Is this already piracy?
Imagine getting paid to do that.
