I'm curious to see where politicians end up after ditching X. I want to believe that governments could set up their own lemmy/bluesky instances. But my gut is telling me Meta owned platforms will win out due to ease of use and their ability to comply with local European laws.
The German ministry for data protection and information security aka BfDI (yeah, it's a mouth full) has one https://social.bund.de/
So has the Dutch government: https://social.overheid.nl/
And the EU has an official one too https://social.network.europa.eu
Dunno if there are more. Maybe the French, Italians and Spanish do too. Maybe a list of governmental mastodon instances would be nice.
