@natureworks While I like the idea, I question what the server would be actually used for. Specifically, how it will be used, and how it would benefit the people involved.
I mean I do know what a Mastodon server is, and how it works as basically a Twitter replacement, but that doesn't answer the reasons to have it "officially" supported by the IT department.
Like any corp or government thing, you have to do a cost benefit analysis and make the costs seem low while the benefits seem high.
@otto42 @natureworks The other thing, I learned, is that gov needs written policy for that stuff. Folks in gov are risk adverse (not without cause) and written policy gives them support to pursue new things.
