Wasn’t this same ceo criticizing Zuckerberg last week for shutting down fact checking?

Getting really mixed signals here. What’s with the back and forth on this guy’s approach to centralized authority?

Same here. I still try to use it once every day in support but I don't like having such a low limit (or any limit at all, really) on how many characters I'm allowed to use for my posts or response. I am more of a macro-blogger as I tend to be very verbose; especially posting online. I do, however, think it is important to create accounts, use and donate to the project that is mastodon; as they are leading by example in this "New Social" era or movement we are all apart of. It would be a shame that something like this isn't able to continue, let alone expand, because not enough people supported the project -- even though such project is giving the people exactly what they wanted and asked for. Let's all try to show our support behind such a bold and selfless decision.

His grand vision remains to leave Mastodon users in control of the social network, making their own decisions about what content is allowed or what appears in their timelines.

So uh... Mastodon will not have a moderation team?

I mean this makes sense, but how exactly is after-stopping-moderation Meta different then?
