By join the fediverse, do you mean instances moderated by the federal government? What would be the desired outcome?
I think it means for gov't agencies (hopefully at all levels) to make important announcements available here as opposed to twitter or other closed platforms
Shouldn't it be in addition to?
Realistically it would be, they're not about to cut 99%+ of users off from their announcements.
Hell, for really important stuff they still go with snail mail.
I'd be happy to have an "official" Mastodon instance. If individual politicians want to engage with their constituents, they can use any old Mastodon (or Lemmy, or whatever) instance. But having government agencies use a Mastodon instance for official communications would provide some insulation from the whims of capricious corporations.
