Mastodawn

I’ve been asked on TV hits and interviews lately to explain why decentralized social media is better, especially re: Mastodon.

How would you explain the benefits of a platform like Mastodon and the fediverse to someone in just a few sentences? How would you make the argument that platforms like Mastodon allow for more free expression than big tech controlled apps?

Would love to hear people’s thoughts! Trying to make my arguments most effective

@taylorlorenz Mastodon is a communication technology where social media can be implemented in a more decentralized and independent approach. The approach ensures that no one company can take over the media, or go out of business taking the entirely of the social network with it. The longevity of this approach ensures freedom from singular control, and makes it more like email and less like myspace, vine, twitter, or many others.
