Amazing to me that a nonprofit can do it, but my local police department, state forest fire service, etc etc, cannot and are stuck on twithell and fuckbook.

The wikimedia fundation is full of money, your forest office is not.

Sure, but using mastodon isn’t exactly a bank breaker (and that’s if you bother hosting your own).

It’s a quick way to send important information, I would hazard a yes.

Several weeks ago the only way I knew about a forest fire down the street was because of twitter.
