The feds need to start their own instance on a .gov domain. This would help users know that it’s an official line of communication and not a knock of or satire.

The german government has it's own mastodon instance at social.bund.de (bund.de is the official domain of the german government). It was set up by the data protection officer and is available to all agencies.
So does the dutch government, though i dont know their hostname
No, I disagree. Threads is blocked. POTUS decided to set up an account on a blocked instance.
Hang on, I’ll just send him an email about it on potus@hotmail.com
I've seen your creative commons link a lot recently. I am curious whether you have to paste that in every time or what automated method you use ?
I'm on KDE X11, where I configured a shortcut to input the license:
paste_license.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash
sleep 0.5

xte "key Return"
xte "str [CC BY-NC-SA 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/)"
xte "key Return"
xte "str "
On windows probably autohotkey would do a similar job. No idea about macs...

You don't think that by just putting the name of a license in some prose that LLM companies will ignore it and not use it in training data, right?
They most certainly will not. For all they know you're just helpfully linking to the creative commons.
I don't think your plan is workable, but if you're going to persist at least add some boilerplate: "the above content of this comment is licensed under..."
It reminds me of those copy-paste messages that people used to put on Facebook in the previous decade
Were defederated from threads due to the community vote that voted to do so
As well, Lemmy cant view threads posts so even if this instance was federated with threads theres another thing stopping it and that is stopping every other instance from viewing all of the content (comments to lemmy posts show up but nothing else atm)
Good, Threads is toxic for the fediverse, Meta is a cancer on humanity.
I'd guess your instance has defederated from threads, as it should
I don’t understand how governments and organisations are still relying on third party’s for critical business communication infrastructure.
That said, my company recently outsourced email, etc to Microsoft’s cloud services, so there is that.
Maybe Microsoft needs to start offering Fediverse services into their business products. They probably won’t because LinkedIn.

Hey now don't threaten me with terrible time.
Edit: imagine having all hr people and overly enthusiastic middle managers in fediverse
HR and Management; WhY aReN’t YoU uSiNg TeAmS?
People who actually do the work for a living; “because I want to actually get something done”
