I have to admit that I always found the @Boost_Libraries Twitter account somewhat of a mystery. Tweets would occasionally emanate from it, but I could discern no underlying logic as to when they would appear and what they would announce; and if I remember correctly, I once tried to figure out who actually operated it by asking around, but without success.
(To be clear, this was in the past.)
Now, I'm generally supportive of us keeping our old ways, because they got us where we are, but in this specific case, I don't think our old ways ever worked that well.
Maybe we need to address this by having a page on boost.org that lists our social media accounts, who is operating them, and on what basis; that is, what is the mandate given to their operators by the community. Or in other words, what are they supposed to tweet, and when.
This "you are in sole control of the account" "no, you are a liar, I'm not the only one, but I won't tell you who the others are" business does not exactly benefit anyone, in my opinion. A bit more clarity and transparency is in order.
Thank you Peter, much more succinctly put than I could have managed, and spot on as always. If we're going to have social media accounts, then we should probably run the full gamut of FB, X etc and have a clear idea of what is and isn't going to be posted there - apart from anything else so that users have a clear idea of what they're going to see in their feed. At the very least, release announcements, plus maybe say GSOC projects and library review results would be worthwhile, basically the same as the boost.announce mailing list. Best.
