@davey_cakes wait until you read what I found... publishing something early next week right after FOSDEM đ”

Ouch! Also involved with Flo? Such a terrible, distasteful invasion of health privacy. Who would trust those involved with user data?
Thanks for sharing this Elena!
@crecente yes! someone sent me this tip and Zeiter still has a page on Flo's website: https://flo.health/about-us/anna-zeiter
I couldn't find the message (I had pretty much a hundred mentions a day this week) but I will look for the source to credit them in my article.
My Fediverse sources / researchers are THE BEST đ

Fact check: Is the EU launching a social media platform called #WSocial?
"A spokesperson for the European Commission told The Cube, Euronews' fact-checking team, that the EU is not launching or funding any social media platform, and that there is currently no EU-backed project called "W"
[...] W is a privately owned social media start-up incorporated in Sweden, backed by private investors mainly from the Nordic region."

@sunnythesheep @UlrikeHahn @pink @_elena @euronews That's a good one, but the initial comment likely referenced the "EU is not launching or funding any social media platform" part :)

@_elena @euronews This is quite strange, since the EU seems to host a mastodon instance for the officials https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/explore

@luca they should have come out publicly to clarify the confusion. They didnât. And it speaks volumes, showing their moral compass. Of course the ambiguity added to the hype.
It took 9 DAYS to get the first news report that was fact-checked. Unbelievable.

@renef @_elena @euronews W is not positioning itself as a Mastodon alternative. It's a centrally operated platform with algorithms, fundamentally different from Mastodon's federated model. W requires mandatory identity verification (to reduce bots) while Mastodon prioritizes pseudonymity. Very different beasts.

@inVinnieVeritas @_elena @euronews W still acts as if there is no alternative to US social media, which is just bullshit.

the people behind it are not techies and it shows.
The CEO spoke of a social media network on European cloud infrastructure as if it was a miraculous thing / never seen before.
HELLO? There are thousands of Fediverse instances fully hosted in Europe. And now some Bluesky PDSs too (only mentioning it because W is a fork of Bluesky).
Iâd be shocked if W gets any traction / is still around a year from now

@_elena @inVinnieVeritas I think it's fine they're trying, competition never hurts. What I personally dislike is how the media is ignoring Mastodon. I realize it's harder to use than "traditional" social media services, but that is no reason to act as if it doesn't exist.

@renef @inVinnieVeritas I thought you meant « Mastadon » right?
Terrible joke but thatâs how the media usually spell it⊠itâs as if they either ignore it on purpose or completely fumble their coverage (like Radio France yesterday that ran with a piece that claimed Eugen had quit his own network out of frustration with user behavior). Excuse me, what? Itâs unbelievable

"Le but est de ne pas tout faire dâun coup. "Par exemple, dans un premier temps, on va montrer la suite LibreOffice qui peut remplacer les solutions de Microsoft. Puis le mois suivant on va parler de Mastodon au lieu de X ou de Proton plutĂŽt que Gmail", prĂ©cise ce vĂ©tĂ©ran de lâautonomie numĂ©rique."
