Not being on Twitter in this case is like shouting “RUN AWAY!” in several empty rooms and not bothering to go into the room full of people.

Emergency broadcasts should be on all platforms. You need to maximize the chance of reaching people.

Yes, I understand that they’re on Twitter and fb because that’s where their audience is. But I don’t want to be required to use Twitter or fb to read their updates, so it would be nice if they also posted to some sort of neutral platform like idk, their own websites.

Yes, it’s popular in Japan. In the US you won’t find local police or emergency agencies on mastodon.
