 Switzerland has joined the Fediverse. Because it is really the best social media where you can control your own data. Wake up 'Merica! Big Tech is not your friend. Right side or left side. Imagine your government or favorite politician being muted by Twitter (X) or Facebook, or Instagram. While the Fediverse has blocking and muting mechanisms, it's done much more locally than at the billionaire level.

Other countries are learning digital freedom before the US. Germany, Holland, UK & the EU are already there.

Swiss Departments that are posting in the Fediverse:


Federal Departments of Foreign Affairs (FDFA)
Federal Department of Home Affairs (FDHA)
Federal Department of Economic Affairs, Education and Research (EAER)

the only problem I see is that all account are multilangual. 
That means that 3 messages will be sent one in german one in french and one in Italian

If you understand only one langue it will be  fload of information you don't understand. 

The best would be 3 account. one per language
