Mastodon totally allows NSFW content. Maybe Threads doesn't, but why trade one deranged billionaire tech overlord for another?

Mastodon has some problems. It's slow, the "instances" concept is confusing, discoverability is poor, and the UI isn't as nice as Threads.

Still worth making the jump for the sake of community governance.

Twitter was destroyed by the governance problem. It proves how we can't ignore the governance structure of the places we invest our time anymore.

But yeah, I'm very disappointed how many people who hate Musk's changes to twitter -- even trans people -- are staying there.

Just search on the #NSFW hashtag, can't miss it.
