“My comments stand with respect to who Mastodon seems to be wishing to attract.”
And I stand that you are mistaken how Mastodon works. It is like saying your phone text application is working to attract a certain group. It is just a tool like a simple text app not an entity or platform.
It can be beneficial to good groups just as well as bad groups.
If the left is trying to attract leftist users to Mastodon, then they have their hooks in it. There is no such thing as true decentralization. I did not say the software itself is trying to do such a thing; that would be absurd.
