      Thanks to @reithose, we already have the data for MPs in the Netherlands.

      Leave X - Protect Democracy (leavex.eu)

      You can also copy the emails from your selected politicians and send them a message.

      Still work in progress! It took a lot of (spare) time to make as it is. Contributions welcome. Here is how

      Leave X - Protect Democracy (@leavex@mastodon.social)

      You can send politicians' data from other countries in this format: https://github.com/everton137/leavex.eu/blob/main/data/politicians/nl/mps.json If you want to build a scraper in Python, please let's organise those scripts here: https://github.com/everton137/leavex-tools All the scripts for MEPs are available. We also organise the scripts to override politicians who left X there. 2/2 #Python #LeaveX #OpenSource

        @randahl
        Great initiative. Still needs to update some information, though. I happened to check on the Twitter / X account of @marketkag.bsky.social today, because she gave a speech in the EP calling on policymakers to boycott the platform, and indeed her account there recently declared an X-it. The campaign site still lists her as active.
        But with some crowd sourced attention we can keep it up to date I'm sure.

          @pneutig @randahl @marketkag.bsky.social

          The data we have was scraped from the official EU website a few days ago. Her profile was there.

          We are updating the list of those quitting, though. Thanks for the info. :)

          Leave X - Protect Democracy (@leavex@mastodon.social)

          Attached: 1 image Thanks to @zollak@bonn.social, we updated the status of ten MEPs! Now, we have 421 more politicians to persuade to leave X, which is a decrease from 60% to 59%. Can we get that number below 50% before spring? Contact the MEPs using our tool https://leavex.eu/politicians/ We should keep track of how many politicians left X by either stating it or deleting their accounts. P. S. here is the code with these latest changes https://github.com/everton137/leavex-tools/commit/d49dd70bd97349adc813ddae0f5982bdddcb97bf #LeaveX #Democracy #EU

              @FrankHghTwr @randahl we need to improve the wording.

              At the moment, 'Inactive on X' are those who declared to quit X by posting about it.

                  @randahl In the 1990's I would have never guessed we'd be concerned...about the concern...of a website.

                    I do hope it "convince" some of them to leave

                      @leavex @reithose @leavex can you consider to host leavex.eu instead of Github using @Codeberg

                      Because using an US server to make an leaveX website ... can backfire.

                      Thanks

                        @leavex @reithose maybe make an prewritten email with those 5 points to "convince" them to leave :

                        1. Disinformation and algorithmic manipulation
                        2. One‑sided bans and loss of a reliable channel
                        3. Journalists’ willingness to follow the politics wherever it goes (Truth social example)
                        4. Why the EU‑hosted Mastodon instance is a better fit
                        5. Why staying on X could jeopardize your political standing (here show your website) to say their name is public and it can hurt them.

                          What about leavex.ca?

                          I’d love if this also included members of Universities Canada.

                          I think the domain is available.

                              At the moment, the priority is improving the code and its data. But I consider this. Thanks for the suggestion.

                                @lexinova @reithose thanks a good suggestion, and that's one of the plans. :) I just didn't have time to implement this.

                                  @leavex @reithose i already send an email with those 5 point (with some personal text between those point) to my country's representative :)

                                  you can also use the :

                                  Server : ec.social-network.europa.eu
                                  An Politician from EU already there : https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@HennaVirkkunen

                                  if they see an European Comission member is already here and active, it may help them to open an account here.

                                    I think everyone here hopes that leave X goes global.

                                        @GhostOnTheHalfShell In the US the younger ones can’t be bothered to deal with life without the ease of shopping with their fingertips and the older ones refuse to give up Facebook ‘cause they claim it’s the only way to stay abreast of their friends. It’s all BS. I remember when we did it with email, or even LETTERS! @randahl @leavex

                                          Yeah, we used to do it with bulletin boards. They’re all sorts of ways of keeping in touch that the major platforms have monopolized.

                                          We need to rediscover the joy in the smol.

                                          The chief factor working in favor of that is platform enshittification.
