European institutions are leaving in droves.

They already have websites. And social media is much more accessible than an RSS feed

Social media requires accounts… by default rss is literally more accessible.

I meant to average users. You're right that RSS is easier, but most of their target users have accounts anyway

Do Facebook next

I agree. European institutions should have social presence, but most of the time that leads to random crazy people commenting under official posts.

Thankfully this glorious thing is still being built and small enough for your opinion to be seen by those building it.
I disagree, but i think your viewpoint is valid.

Hmm.
It'd be interesting for to see a forum whereby it's all readable by anybody, but only those at the top of their fields can post/comment.
I imagine there'd be a gap between those comments and what the rest of us can understand but I kinda like the idea in terms of ensuring we get intelligent, well thought out, comments on important news stories.

Somewhat out of scope for this specific article, but in the States' a lot of cities only make announcements over Tw*tter or Facebook.
I was planning on going to a 4th of July parade with my family, and I only learned it was cancelled (wildfires) because somebody else told me, who was following there, the city website had no mechanism for this kind of news.
Which is really what I'd prefer to see, websites maintained for announcements, and if they want to also post that news on other social media they can use software to crosspost. Also RSS feeds for those who still use readers, plenty of 'Content Management' suites provide that functionality by default.

Yeah I still think there should be websites and RSS (sorry about what happened BTW), but the top user was implying socials are useless for them. Most people have social media, but most also don't have RSS.

Maybe now would be the right time to lobby this organization.
The impact of Twitter may have brought us Trump and all the destruction which will follow. We can't affort this once more. -

Aww i thought you meant they were leaving bluesky in droves

The way I see it, the most important thing right now is breaking up the biggest platforms. The biggest advantage that places like Facebook, Twitter and TikTok have right now is the network effect from having a fuck ton of users. But in a more fractured social media landscape, the tools that are the most open and federated will eventually come out on top.

Ask Historians on Reddit operated like this and worked very well
