As far as I’m concerned, they still have. As a non-Twitter user, not only have I already decided the platform wasn’t for me, now it’s a question mark whether Musk will wake up tomorrow and turn off access again. The simplest solution is to double down on continuing to ignore Twitter.
The crazy thing is that governments would be much better served if they would run government Mastodon instances for government employees and enforce their own policies on them, than using a private company with its own agenda.
I’m not super uptodate as I don’t have a twitter account but didn’t they kinda ban bot accounts a while back? Or something like that, which would make it harder for government entities to send out automated notifications.
I doubt twitter will survive the next US election cycle. Between impersonation accounts, rampant right wing wackos and Musks need to meddle twitter will become a shitstorm of unbelievable proportions.
I think that this would be better suited for a tech news community, but, I’m not going to remove it at this point.
It did seem like they were speedrunning towards getting people to ignore twitter links.

yeah, but people always link to it, and governments and orgs, will not stop to put the announces there
