I started a thread on this. The hashtag is #Xodus but it covers tech beyond X

Xodus thread. Entities that have discontinued use of Big Tech Includes social media platforms, "AI" platforms, cloud hosters, all that. X -- New Brunswick possibly Nova Scotia "Since New Brunswick premier Susan Holt signalled her government will abandon the social media platform X, previously know as Twitter, it’s prompted the Nova Scotia government to consider its use of the platform." https://www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nova-scotia/article/nova-scotia-reviewing-use-of-x-as-new-brunswick-logs-off-platform/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_medium=activitypub

Mastodon, I need your help! As more European countries and orgs look to ditch US technology and move to sovereign or open source alternatives, I'm trying to track these efforts.
So far, I've found more than half a dozen government agencies, cities, orgs, that are embracing digital sovereignty but want to hear about other examples that I've missed. Who else should I be adding to this?
Here's a list of what I have so far: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yF0yznwPWuEqI2rJi54KFTIWu0yYYVkhVDRtmuy3D2w/edit?usp=sharing

Proton is under U.S. jurisdiction. Look up their terms and they list only 2 countries, Swizerland and the United States.
If you're looking to share documents, I would suggest Infomaniak.

Thanks btw. Saved.
PS: have many non-profits made the switch? Any examples?

This is just one municipality, but there are more moving.
Kommunen faset ut en rekke amerikanske IT-systemer: «Det har vært relativt enkelt»
Da Ishøj kommune i fjor ble rammet av store prisøkninger fra en rekke amerikanske IT-leverandører, besluttet man å fase ut flere sentrale systemer.

@mattburgess I wish more would consider adopting the Haystacks Tech platform, and our scripting language HayScript, and our dev-ecosystem! I have invested over $1.1M of my own money into building all of this so far, without AI!! Human hands, hand crafted software!! https://youtu.be/Rd13XD4lI1U?si=meReKZsyAYROXLCH

Hmm, I signed up without government id. Maybe it depends on which country you are signing up from?

@older @mattburgess Yes of course I read before I respond. You see the original post contains an "OR" which to my understanding as a programmer and according to programmer logic is a non-exclusive "OR", or shall I say an inclusive "OR". And the statement immediately following this "OR" is the worda "Open Source". Considering my company is 90% open source, including an open source dev platform, an open source scripting language, and an open source typing tutor. I determined this qualifies.
