Mastodon is a Free Software, decentralized, global Social Media network. Unlike the other major ones, it is not a part of the Attention Economy, and generally has no ads. In How to Join the Fediverse and Cast Off the Attention Economy, I write about how to get started with Mastodon and why it makes sense. Mastodon and other projects that use ActivityPub for federation are said to form the Fediverse.
