Ann GarrisonMastodon is a distributed social media network that can't be owned, manipulated, or taken away by billionaires or corporations. I don't know why but it just doesn't catch on. People are instead moving from X to Bluesky, which is also owned and controlled by billionaires, funded by venture capital, and soon to be an IPO. 1/3
Much if not most of X is people fighting it out, political party against party, gang against gang, tribe or clan against tribe or clan, but ultimately the billionaires and corporations own it all and can take it all away at any time. 2/3
