@AskPippa @ater @Brendanjones Are you aware of any projects/products out there specifically as, perhaps, "social media for Canadians dealing with natural disasters"? Just curious...

Mastodon?

You know, where anyone can publish and you can follow the feeds that are relevant to you.

Thing is, I wouldn't do such a project a different way. For most people, natural disasters are a rare occurrence. The whole purpose of using existing networks like FB or Twitter was to escalate those rare occurrences on the channels people are already using. We do the same things with TV and radio.

I don't want more channels, let's use the ones we have.

I'm not Canadian so if that's an option, good on you. Not here, though.
