    i never understood why my Government in Australia doesn’t have a tech division a Linux version to use, Libre Office software etc a messenger service, an email and a Mastodon instance. Doesn’t mean you have to use them by the Governments should and be available to all including our Oceania brothers if they wish including funding them.

    Giving up digital sovereignty is beyond my understanding, let alone hosting Government. and financial services on foreign owned cloud services.

      Yeah not having a government issued email is completely bonkers in this day and age. They should never have allowed Google to fill that gap.
