How can we convince the city to set up a Mastodon account?
As currently they’re only using YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
History has shown us time and time again that these corporate platforms are unreliable and untrustworthy.
•Twitter has a moderation problem.
•Facebook has been found interfering with the message delivery of crucial information during emergencies, putting people’s lives at risk.
•YouTube often takes down videos for the wildest of reasons and Google had a massive fight with the federal government over Canadian media outlet compensation. Who’s to say they won’t use their dominant position to sabotage the efforts of governments they don’t agree.
We could email the council requesting that they post on the platform.
They could set up an account on one of the larger well established Canadian instances or even better start up their own.
