   Two years ago, #EDPS embarked on a pioneering journey launching a pilot project of two decentralised social media platforms: #EUVoice & #EUVideo.

   18 May will mark the end of the project. Time to review the results of this successful story.

     @helma @EDPS ...seriously, with all the money going around in the EU it can't fund the servers for EDPS ? Besides the fact that this funding would directly contribute to explicit EU goals with regard to digital/digitisation ? How can this happen ? 🤔

     @ErikJonker @helma @EDPS As an American 🇺🇸, I am shocked that the #EuropeanUnion 🇪🇺 could be so short sited!

     Will they allow their voice in the #Fediverse to solely rely upon #Threads when the latter federates in #Europe (as the #EU 🇪🇺 is active upon there)‽

     Waking myself up & firing up an angry #WriteFreely post!

     Unfortunate, but extremely par for the course.

     @EDPS this is really unfortunate, to say the least.

     I appreciate that you embarked on this project. Thank you for taking that risk!

     The fact that all of the European Commission cannot find an agency to own it and continue maintaining it is unfathomable.

     Especially in the context of how digital sovereignty gets so much lip-service from the Commission.

     EC's priorities seem upside-down.

     @EDPS Wait, does this mean that social.network.europa.eu will go offline on the 18th of May?

     @EDPS Dear EDPS and other responsible for this decision,
     I will gladly manage Mastodon servers for you, moderate them and pay out of my own pocket for it. How many accounts do you have? 50 or so? No problem.
     Please contact me and continue your presence on #fediverse.
     Dissapearing from fediverse will send a strong negative signal, dismissing EU's digital soverignty.

     @DigitalEU

     Hi @po3mah! Thank you for the offer, and for being an active part of our community on the fediverse. Know that we intend to keep our account running, and are actively working on a solution.

     Hello @EDPS please move your feed to @eupolicy.social and thus keep going on Mastodon. We are a small group of volunteers, including one from the EDPS, running this server. It costs you nothing and it is run to highest data protection and security standards.
