    Since I learned that the EU and Germany have been running official Mastodon servers for a while, and have recently been joined by Netherlands, I’m hopeful that this initiative might be a catalyst for an open and interoperable system. Details are pretty light though in the article, and it sounds like mostly establishing regulations. Still, if those regulations are structured well, there could be an open and interoperable “Metaverse” (whatever that might mean).

    Lost opportunity to invest in the Fediverse instead. Open a mastodon account for all European institutions, maybe ask the Countries to do the same for their entities. Mastodon was created in Europe, by the way. Also it’s open source, and this is a huge benefit over Meta/Twitter.
