British Columbia Now Has It's Own Regional Instance

That could actually be useful. The one thing I used to use Twitter for was tracking local emergency response. If all of that operated on a local mastodon instance that all government orgs and press outlets used, I’d be down with that.
Of course, it would be even better if we knew it would, for instance, survive a massive earthquake.
The instance is currently hosted in Portugal so an earthquake wouldn’t be able to take it down.
Portugal is notoriously impervious to earthquakes.
Is that the reason why it's hosted overseas? I think it's interesting that an instance "intended to serve citizens and residents of British Columbia" isn't hosted in BC.
Hmm… if it’s hosted in Portugal, then it’s under the GDPR instead of the CPA and PIPEDA.
