The @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu is on the fediverse. It seems as if they only response when @'ed on mastodon, for some reason.

France on Friday announced the "Choose France for Science" platform, operated by the French National Research Agency (ANR), which will enable universities, schools, and research organisations to apply for co-funding from the government to host researchers.

This is a good thing, but always France has to take the 'we are going to fix this ourselves'-approach. Maybe it would have taken a lot longer, but I would really prefer to see a "choose EU for science" program, supported by the commission.
