I don't want to create 100 accounts to access each countries totally unique and special websites. It's a bad system and ultimately will lead to less discourse and not more.

However, unless you are a resident of 100 countries, it's probably not particularly essential that you do so, is it? I mean, I can imagine my being interested in the official channels of communication for governments of countries in which I am not a resident, but I cannot imagine why they should care to make it particularly easy for me to access those communications. It seems that the most that I should be able to ask is easy read-only access without having to sign up for a special account.

Jes, kaj estas tre malfacila kie homoj diras kun lingvoj ce mi ne komprenas.

Do, ĉiuj homoj devas paroli Esperanton.

Forgive me if I'm mistaken, I've never used mastodon, but I expect part of the "federated" bit means being able to "follow" users from other Mastodon instances, including EU Voice. So you'd need just one account on a Mastodon instances to follow every EU government/institution announcements on EU Voice. If not on Mastodon, RSS feeds still exist.

It's completely correct. You can follow say @[email protected] from an account on say mastodon.nz.

You don’t have to create an account to read posts on mastodon
