Mike Gifford, CPWA on Nostr: Why do governments still have Twitter (X) links on them? Surely we can be confident ...
Why do governments still have Twitter (X) links on them? Surely we can be confident that it isn't a neutral public square in 2024. Are governments getting value from it? Agencies/departments do not need to pick between LinkedIn, Mastodon, Bluesky or Threads if choosing a new platform proves difficult, but remove Twitter from your social media feeds.
Having Twitter, but not the others isn't neutral, it is negative.
