How about avoiding commercial platforms when it comes to vitally important official communication?
Problem is that no noncommercial platform would ever have the same coverage as a commercial one like X. People simply would not see the necessity to install it until it's too late.
Imagine if the only alert of the impending death wave was some federated lemmy server which was having a few network problems that day.
I get all the local disaster updates from startek.website!
So far, nothing has been reported, but I have a feeling the users will come pouring in soon!
Aaaaaaaany day now....
My house flooded. But it's not reported, so it didn't happen!
Could always go the route of an amber alert-like system being primary and then pipe the same msg to their secondary commercial platforms (like X). I'm not privy on the details but it sounds irresponsible to rely on X primarily/solely.
That's what they're doing, Twitter/X is only redundancy
Oh nice this sounds less worse than it seems then
I bet they spam that message through every medium they can - TV, radio, loudspeakers, phone alert, text, traffic signs, all the social media platforms.
They do, all phones get an emergency alert and tvs display a message. Twitter was another vector to spread the word out.
Well. Then they should tell those people who still use X that this is an unreliable source. For anything else it already is, anyway.
Or maybe if you use x you should be smart enough to understand what's going on already lol
I don't rate people who still use X as "smart".
Kind of like the amber alert system?
The thing is, they communicate where people's at. People gotta move
People will move if they learn that their lives are at stake by using X.
