IMO, any organization that claims to support Libre software NEEDS to be on Libre social media platforms, fediverse or otherwise.

It would be very nice if they had a cross-poster from Fediverse to Twitter, instead of vice versa. It would be a one-time investment in setting it up and learning how to use it, and then no further time investment related to what they are already doing right now.

It's not official, but someone has made a mirror bot for the EFF's Twitter: https://mastodon.social/web/@eff

Obviously the biggest issue there is that no one can actually contact the EFF by replying to those Mastodon posts, versus they would see your replies on Twitter. A mirror bot is good for keeping up with the information an organization posts, but it definitely isn't a "presence" of that organization on the Fediverse.

Indeed. I am following that, but not boosting very often too, for the same reason of not being a real presence.
