As a Canadian I'm happy to see fellow Canadian Cory Doctorow - @pluralistic - making an impact around the world. It does require a decent translation tool...

Germany is following France's lead and is launching a study on how to move away from U.S. tech towards #DigitalSovereignty.
Thanks to @hikingdude for the article.
BTW - there is a Quebec based Canadian email provider. This IS NOT an endorsement - just pointing out a relatively new startup in case anyone wants to take a look.
I'll be interested in his reply as I am in research mode. I have a son-in-law with PhD in Computer Science who is also looking into alternatives and I'm afraid of what he'll recommend.
@fabio
Good experience so far?
I've had a GMail account for 15+ years. Is it time?
@johnefrancis @leanderlindahl
I blame it on not enough coffee....
Will definitely come up with something different.

Thanks to @leanderlindahl, I was alerted to a monthly event that MastoCanucks should participate in. The 1st Sunday of every month has been pronounced Digital Independence Day & the #did hashtag is spreading across Europe. It's a day to celebrate when you have stopped using U.S. tech and switched to an in-country or open source solution. Get involved by using the #CDNdid tag and let us know what U.S. tech you recently dumped.

We recently made a big fuss about a high profile #NDP leadership candidate but @votetanille was on Mastodon 4 months earlier. Show her some love with a follow and send a big "Thank You" for her support of Canadian #DigitalSovereignty.
Calling on MastoCanucks to reach out to MP Dominique O'Rouke to launch an account on Mastodon. The Fediverse is a far superior alternative to X and it appears she would be motivated to switch. We will assist in launching and promoting her account once she gets setup.
Thanks to @hewer_of_code for the tip.
