   @grillchen @kaia if my government was publishing data, like the national weather service, I would want them on a service that isn't gatekept with expensive or nonexistent API keys etc

     @bonifartius @grillchen @kaia I think something like, emergency alerts would be a suitable government service you'd like to "follow" on the Fediverse.

     Fun fact: the german government did have a weather app for free. Private companies sued because it was a competitive advantage. They now have to charge to give out weather info but can still put out weather warnings for free.

     @smug Was the weather cr...app actually free, or was it gratis, proprietary software?
