✍️I like how Mastodon breaks social media. A like button is the secret sauce that controls the masses. But on Mastodon, the like button is just a “send my complements to the chef.” It serves no other purpose.

Love the description of the purpose of the 'Like' button on Mastodon.
Here, you're encouraged to think for yourself &, as there is no equivalent of the 'quote tweet', what you say can't be misused or misquoted as can happen on the bird site.
It's all very civilised.
