Unfortunately, it is only 1 out of 16 states.

Got to start somewhere, if a few do it it shows it's possible

It is first step. If it will work well, maybe other states will do it.

Well, other states did switch before but then went back. We'll have to see. I welcome this step, if it continues.

Bavarians: *deep breathing

[–] Ek-Hou-Van-Braai@piefed.social 7 points 2 months ago

It will work fine. Email is simple. I've administered dozens in my career, it will be just fine.
