Huge respect for the EU Commission, @EUCommission, who have updated their webpage with a new follow button — X is out, Mastodon is in!
Remember to reward them with a follow! ♥️🇪🇺

Ummm... no. That's wishful thinking.
The "Press Corner" page still sticks with the established world order of icons, and the EU commission hasn't stopped at all posting on #X.
In fact, they keep posting much more on X than on the Fediverse / Mastodon.

@randahl @EUCommission Feels like big news. Thanks for letting us know.
@randahl If someone needs alt text, I'm not a good writer, but that's just a screenshot of the website with an arrow pointing to the new follow button.
@qgustavor Thank you for reminding me. I have updated the post.
@randahl My client reminded me. It defaults to warning if I try boosting something without alt text. 
@randahl @EUCommission Can that person try to sue them like he did with the advertising boycott?
@randahl @EUCommission What?! This cheered me up 🫶
@EUCommission Wondering when will they also drop LinkedIn?
@randahl @EUCommission this is genuinely great news, about time official institutions showed up here properly. followed!
this is actually huge. the EU Commission on Mastodon feels weirdly wholesome lol
@randahl @EUCommission Done, Sir! Thanks for the hint
@randahl @EUCommission honestly good on them, more institutions should make this move
