A lot of people make up all kinds of wild assumptions Mastodon, how it works, and what it is. We're here to help clear up some of the biggest ones.

Hey there! Figured I’d share here since my main instance, Lemmy.ml, seems to be really broken right now. I published an article today focusing on some of the myths and misconceptions Mastodon users have spread over the last few years, with some critical analysis and debunking.

Let me know if you like it!

    Wrong again IMO, I said spin up your own stuff right? Like spin up a twitter. Or a Reddit.

    I didn’t say spin up your local twitter only you can use and only you. I mean who would think that would be a good idea? Nobody, right?

    Maybe you are too tech savvy and reads between the lines so you’re the person figuring out all these things we’ll need to fix in the future, and that’s super cool, but for grandma, I persist and signs, spin up your own FB is most probably meaning just have the power of it for her.

    Anyway, It seems it’s quite complicated to explain easily, we all have so different ways to see what it is.

    Cheers
