Many people in Japan depend on the NERV service for earthquake alerts. Unfortunately, they'll no longer be able to receive them on X.

Good, social networks use should be discouraged and not used by governments

Yeah, but NERV isn’t run by the government. It’s a service run by a private company.

Mastodon & Lemmy are both social networks. They're just not centrally owned & operated.
