@L4s Just FYI the NERV app mentioned on the article is not government official. (Althought I believe it uses government oficial APIs for earthquake detection)

That’s a bot account BTW. There’s a flag next to the name to indicate that but I guess it’s not visible on mastodon.

Yeah, it just added automatically when hitting Reply here on masto. TIL that if you delete the @ mention, it still becomes a thread :)

If you’re already replying to someone, the @ seems totally redundant.
