They could easily centralize government updates and such. TBH I’d rather they use a Squarespace site than X.

Really what they should do is use some management site to simultaneously post to Facebook/X. What will be really stupid is when Democrats take office, and then they change to some other site, and then Republicans take office, and they return everything to X.

The goal should be to maximize access at minimal cost. Social media posts maximize access, and it's not hard to post to multiple sites at once. There are a million different tools for it, and it could be as simple as the social media maintainer posting twice
