That’s…actually a cool AF idea/inplementation of Fediverse shit. A practical use as well, as they’d control who was on the instance and would be a sorta pseudo-verification process for any accounts on it’s own.
It’s not… it’s the fediverse. I’m completely fine with them having their own instance, it’s not like they control it by any means. Hell they can be defederated. It’s a lot better than them choosing some random instance.
Correct. It would only be for government officials, so anyone federated with them would know that they are in fact, validated as the government official.
about time…
Start pushing for mastodon! Honestly there should be an official mastodon instance
You mean mstdn.social?
I mean there should be a mastodon.gov.uk

I think it’s perfect for governments. You can subscribe anywhere, you know it’s legit, and that’s a much better way to do notifications than twitter.
Yeah, but then again, do you want a government controlled social media? 🤔
The government could control social media on their own instance, sure.
I think having government accounts come from an official instance would garner more trust in the platform.
People don’t trust the government all the time, they are a bunch of sneaky buggers you know.
This is healthy attitude but irrelevant to the point
