https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/11/how-secure-a-twitter-replacement-is-mastodon-let-us-count-the-ways/ @KuJoe curious about your thoughts on this. Mastedon definitely seems the most similar experience for Twitter refugees (and I'm SO happy to be here) but server hosting/security/trust issues could be very real in the decentralized model.

@mhauden Also I'd like to point out that this line: "A third vulnerability discovered this month on one instance made it possible to steal users' plaintext passwords by injecting specially crafted HTML into the site." is slightly misleading because the instance in question (infosec.exchange) is running a modified version of Mastodon (glitch) and the vulnerability was not present in the official version of Mastodon. Not to say that it's not still a concern, but just a little clarification.
@KuJoe That's an excellent point. I'll check the comments on the article and see if it's been brought up.
