The article has a factual mistake. Mastodon isn't trying to pick up the people leaving Twitter, it's just here and they show up. We don't advertise, we aren't in the trades talking up decentralized networks, we just exist and they find us.

@GrayGooGirl Funny how the most decentralized network has one person able to speak authoritatively (“factually”) on the entire network’s motivation.
