[OSGeo-Discuss] Is OSGeo presence on ${one-letter-asocial-media} still desirable?

[Werner Macho]

Hi!

While I usually stay quiet about such things I am fully with Even here.
At some point there is no room for tolerance anymore.
As an Austrian I am with the thoughts of Sir Karl Popper and for me it
stays this way.

While being a fan of Musk at the very beginning I left twitter/X as soon as
I saw his 'new way' of thinking.

regards
Werner
