It struck me that Mastodon might be some (many?) people's first experiences with a communication tool not run by a corporation.
@alexwood now that's a weird thought (but i guess if IRC was still popular, the internet would look super different)
@alexwood I guess it just depends on perspective - there is still a corporation running the server that it is hosted on. :D
@alexwood I hadn't thought about that. You're probably right.
@alexwood sure that's true for me. and I can't find how to edit my profile :)
@alexwood Joke's on you, my instance is run by a corporation
@alexwood That cat must have some MASSIVE cheek bones to support those glasses!
