@edmond@Gargron as a new user, would you mind a quick synopsis of what makes Mastodon an ethical technology? And how the interests of regular people are better protected here?
@weka@Gargron Sure! No corporate surveillance, no ads, no tracking or data harvesting. It's not a purchasable for-profit entity, so it's not subject to the policies or political whims of shareholders or whichever billionaires happen to currently own the platform. Also doesn't lock you down to any particular instance, as you can take your followers with you if you decide to move your account to a different server.
