This piece from 404 Media's @jasonkoebler on why he now believes Mastodon is the best option out of the social networks is funny, nuanced, poignant. Touches on moderation, audiences, interoperability, more.

"Mastodon is the Good One."

Mastodon Is the Good One

Mastodon is interoperable, decentralized, operated by a nonprofit, lively, and, ACTUALLY, isn't hard to use. So why is everyone championing Threads as the main Twitter alternative?

@josephcox @jasonkoebler I couldn't agree more. Mastodon seems to be what people want the internet to be. So it's strange to me that they'll run to the arms of another billionaire before putting in a little time to make a home here.

But Mastodon is also unkillable, so they'll eventually find their way here.
