Cool! Now dozens of people will get their posts!

The more important thing: anyone can see their posts now. This is rather crucial for a government institution's feed and not true on Twitter anymore.

This - Twitter is currently not usable without an account. You can't see any posts and there's no way to ensure that your followers will see your posts. Therefore it's really useless as a communication channel for government information.

They don’t share anything important on there anyway.

A dozen today, 13 tomorrow, eventually more people will know about it and join. You don't have to go that far back for governments having any social media presence at all being a very weird thing.
