First question from someone from #WSocial to the board: is it European or EU?
Answer from @bjoernsta
European.social is not about Nations, it's about common values and principles.
@Ruhrnalist 😱 I can't believe they're there OMG
@_elena @Ruhrnalist What plattform is this built on?
@doktorzjivago @Ruhrnalist it's an association to advocate with decision makers about the open social web. they don't have any social media profiles yet but Mastodon and Eurosky are some of the initial signatories
@_elena @Ruhrnalist Thanks for clarifying! I thought it was a server 😄
The #europeansocial is:
12 founding signatories, 41 builders, 15 communities, 88 organisations and about 700 individuals. It will have the basis in Hamburg as a German Verein (e.V.) from tomorrow.
