mastodon.nzoss.nz is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
This is a mostly te reo Māori and English language instance, for folks in Aotearoa New Zealand. We talk a lot about openness, technology, and improving our society. Helping folk associated with Aotearoa New Zealand engage in the Fediverse since 2017.

If we turfed Microsoft, our IT costs would plummet and satisfaction of users would (after a short dip of dealing with stuff that's 'different') rise markedly. Of that I have little doubt. Sadly, we don't have any digital tech leaders (with sufficient clout to influence policy) in the public services, which is why we can't have nice things (or competent, cost-effective digital services).

People like Mr Rijpma should be listened to. Not. At. All. They're marketers, not policy makers, not technologists, not credible. Gov't needs to stop listening to these people who are 100% committed to 'increasing shareholder value' and not. at. all. committed to the people of NZ.
