Great work @hpod16@eupolicy.social ! Now that @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu has a Mastodon icon on its website it's time for all EU institutions to switch X icons for Mastodon icons! Why should EU institutions be promoting US controlled toxic big tech on their websites? #SwitchTheIcons

@alexandrageese@bonn.social glad to see you here on Mastodon and to see the Mastodon icon on your own website, but your email newsletter still has X icon and no Mastodon icon at the end of it

@Tutanota@mastodon.social love the Digital Independence Day initiative! http://xodus.online has info and support for people making this move for social media. Of course people here on Mastodon already have taken some of those steps, but can share the website with friends who may like to learn more.

@_elena@mastodon.social reasons for switching from Big Tech to the Fediverse are outlined in http://xodus.online/why
The main way we are going to spread the word about Mastodon is by having "Share on Mastodon" buttons on websites! Great to see this new official tool from Mastodon devs to help website authors do this! There were already some good third party tools doing this (e.g. https://github.com/kytta/ ) but this official https://share.joinmastodon.org/ tool might be more widely used. Time to #SwitchTheIcons !

@asci@indieweb.social great to see this! Have included it in the "how" page of http://xodus.online

@Mastodon@mastodon.social Great to see this official tool. I think we need to start a hashtag encouraging all websites to #SwitchTheIcons !
RE: @alexandrageese@bonn.social
Living near Brussels? This looks like a great event! Europeans need to stop using US controlled tech, there are plenty of excellent alternatives
