Oh we have the same wish!

@leanderlindahl I would be smiling from ear to ear for the entirety of 2026 if they walked the talk and did this 🤗

@EUCommission

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@tizianomattei you can always count on me for sassy posts to the EC 💁‍♀️

I truly wish they would walk the talk and follow through their posts with some bold actions

Walk the talk...

[magdalena_nik@mastodon.social]

@_elena
Great call out, on point! I wonder what does @EUCommission has to say to this?

[leanderlindahl@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission let's get 6800 boosts to celebrate 68 years of @EUCommission (founded 1957).

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@magdalena_nik I wonder too! I have been contacting them about this very issue for 1 1/2 years now (via email too) and never got any answer

@EUCommission

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@leanderlindahl I LOVE your commitment to this. And thank you for motivating me to persist (inquiring about this issue) because it's something I've been contacting them about and never received any answers (via email too)

@EUCommission

[leanderlindahl@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission thank you yourself. I'm also an "into the void screamer". But we'll get there. We know we're right. And anyone taking the time to listen and consider what we're saying will know it too. That something is hard and takes a long time is not a reason not to do it. Slowly slowly the tide is turning.
(Look at the footer of https://bundestag.de for instance)

@_elena @EUCommission Mastodon is a celebration of European ingenuity, vitality, innovation and resilience. How many other power blocks in the world have their own free, open, federated social media? I count zero.

[westnorthantsgreens@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission It's the same thing with @thegreenparty@threads.net where they are also @thegreenparty@mastodonapp.uk on Mastodon but have never posted anything. But want to #RejoinEU so should invest in EU platforms like Mastodon.

@leanderlindahl 🎯 🙌 @EUCommission

[circumspicio@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission I don’t know anyone who uses X anymore. It is such a toxic platform, I am not sure why you would want to be associated with it. EU, be bold and move on.

[kevinkoolio@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission very well said.

@muminitaly @_elena

We have almost 60 universities in Germany with Mastodon accounts and the logo on their websites, see the great lists of @scammo
👉 https://mastodon-listen.playground.54gradsoftware.de/
Check the details of that page and you will be directed to nearly 150 research institutes in Germany active an Mastodon, cities and communities etc.. And their numbers of followers is constantly increasing.
Isn't that a great development for the fediverse?
Please, @EUCommission, come on and join this movement. This would help enormously in demonstrating European souvereignity.

[rozeboosje@masto.ai]

@muminitaly @_elena @EUCommission one thing we can do is to keep hammering the point with them. As some have already pointed out, we're not asking them to abandon their profiles on those platforms. For now, at least, just add a mastodon link to the list of "follow us" options. Maybe even as the number 1 link.

[joshsjunkdrawer@mastodon.social]

@_elena @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu Is this the same EU that's desperately trying to push Chat Control and now wants to ban VPNs?

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@rozeboosje that would be AMAZING! ✨ @muminitaly @EUCommission
