Do Facebook next

If only it were to mastodon. Though baby steps, i guess
- Or, hear me out, whatever happened to just hosting your own fucking website and RSS stream? Not everything needs to an opportunity for a random Joe to drop his two cents in.
  
  I agree. European institutions should have social presence, but most of the time that leads to random crazy people commenting under official posts.
  
  ...we are building a social web here, that is why.
  If you just want a website with rss, why be here?
  
  They already have websites. And social media is much more accessible than an RSS feed
