Mastodon is an effective Twitter alternative that supports decentralization via ActivityPub. It could use some visual enhancements, but given that it's open source and built on an open protocol — perhaps that will happen in 2023!
It would be great to have full-text search aka “elastic search” but I get why it's not available on all instances.
If you can take the time to build your follow graph, Mastodon provides the highest signal to nose ratio I’ve personally experienced in recent memory. The lack of recommendation algorithm defaults and the openness of the platform (allowing for a proliferation of clients) make Mastodon stand out from the exodus of Twitter DAU.
The best kind of social media. Has its quirks but a better place online
It's a very good decentralized social network with a great community that works really well
The concept of decentralized social network is awesome. But you need a better marketing guys.
It's a true alternative to Twitter and other microblogging platform.
Need more popularity and that will be done soon thank to you :).
