  1. "#Publicinstitutions generate public content that they ultimately publish on proprietary platforms, turning users into raw material for #dataextractivism. In contrast to this model, #theFediverse emerges as an alternative that is attracting growing interest, yet still lacks the presence of collectives, #culturalorganizations, and public institutions: the very actors that genuinely help shape and sustain public discourse.

  2. Why Libraries Matter in a Fascist Moment

    “If we lose this as a public good and as a free public service, we will have lost everything,” says Mariame Kaba.

  3. "In any #freesociety, it is the right of every citizen to access and comment on the news, decisions, and reasonings of their #government. We believe it is a government’s responsibility to ensure this right for its constituents. #Publicinstitutions should communicate with their citizens on #openplatforms, not ones that require creating an account and sending personal data to a self-serving tech company."

  4. "…many #publicinstitutions want to move away from Facebook and Twitter, but feel locked in. They know those platforms are toxic, yet all the people are there. But what if we stopped treating #theFediverse like a chaotic free-for-all and started showing how it can also work for structured, “responsible” #publishing? #WordPress already has millions of users. The #ActivityPubplugin is mature, maintained, and already working. All it takes is will, and a little guidance."

  6. "The focus on US corporate control, #sovereignty& #competition misses the deeper issue:how#cloud migration reconfigures the very nature of #publicinstitutions.
    The Dutch academic community…highlight how #cloudmigration converts #universities “from being a source of technical innovation & knowledge distribution to consumers of services”—a fundamental shift that undermines academic independence and transforms knowledge-producing institutions into service-consuming clients."

  8. The very notion of a Public Institution using a Private Corporation, especially one as gross as Twitter 🤮, is simply preposterous!

  9. Should you wonder why I (more or less) regularly boost the toots by @SlovakNationalGallery, it's not because I like them all. But #snggallery is one of the few Slovak #PublicInstitutions (actually, the only one I know of) active on #Mastodon. IMO, art and cultural institutions are what keeps #humanity from completely falling into the void.
    Give'em a follow, if you like, to make this world a better place.

  10. How about not endorsing the views of politicians who have called students 'insects crawling out of drain' How about treating them equally as a human first.
    Before, questioning students who are fighting for their educational rights, trying to save academia from clutches of corporates & private players.
    It's the media who should ponder on it's own state, whether they wish to act as watchdog or lapdog of privileged & twice-born.
