Mastodon deployed on your own infrastructure allows you to follow and be followed from any other Mastodon server online and is under no one's control but yours.Learn moreModerating the way it should beMastodon puts decision making back in your hands. Each server creates their own rules and regulations, which are enforced locally and not top-down like corporate social media, making it the most flexible in responding to the needs of different groups of people. Join a server with the rules you agree with, or host your own.Find a serverUnparalleled creativityMastodon supports audio, video and picture posts, accessibility descriptions, polls, content warnings, animated avatars, custom emojis, thumbnail crop control, and more, to help you express yourself online. Whether you're publishing your art, your music, or your podcast, Mastodon is there for you.Learn moreWhy Mastodon?DecentralizedInstant global communication is too important to belong to one company. Each Mastodon server is a completely independent entity, able to interoperate with others to form one global social network.Open SourceMastodon is free and open-source software. We believe in your right to use, copy, study and change Mastodon as you see fit, and we benefit from contributions from the community.Not for SaleWe respect your agency. Your feed is curated and created by you. We will never serve ads or push profiles for you to see. That means your data and your time are yours and yours alone.InteroperableBuilt on open web protocols, Mastodon can speak with any other platform that implements ActivityPub. With one account you get access to a whole universe of social apps—the fediverse.What our users are sayingI've made so many friends on Mastodon because I can actually talk to people instead of getting buried by algorithms that reward meaningless numbers over actual interaction.infinite love ⴳ@trwnh@mastodon.socialMastodon does an amazing job at giving communities the autonomy necessary to thrive by giving them the keys to federate and moderate their own servers. But don't let that alone overshadow the fact that it simply does features that the major social networks try to do (e.g. image captioning, content warnings) astoundingly better.Jenn Schiffer@jenn@pixel.kitchenMastodon has changed my opinion of social media, it's a refreshing take on microblogging with a focus on privacy and safety.dansup@dansup@mastodon.socialMastodon is a privacy-friendly way to communicate with people which are interested in my work and the work of my authority. social.bund.de gives us the opportunity to incubate Mastodon accounts even for other federal authorities.Ulrich Kelber@ulrichkelber@bonn.socialMastodon allowed us to create a non-profit, abuse-free social network based on open web standards and principles, all the while allowing our moderators and members to reinvigorate the early web values of community, camaraderie and respect using modern, accessible technologies.Jaz@jaz@toot.walesMastodon is a well-moderated fully-functional microblogging service with some great features!해파리@jarm@qdon.spaceIt's social media with moderation that actually works.voronoi potato@Vopo@mastodon.socialI could have joined an existing community, but I decided to self-host Mastodon.My posts to the world are replicated from my own servers and can be traced back to their originals. Since I own it, the platform will not be terminated or removed at the platform's discretion, and I can provide a long and stable service. I finally have this. Yay!のえる@noellabo@fedibird.comIt's good softwarehalcy@halcy@icosahedron.websiteGreat community, friendly atmosphere, and free software! What else would you possibly need?autumncheney@AutumnCheney@mastodon.socialI wanted to have a federated social network since 2013 that looked and felt great and where I can connect to like-minded people. Mastodon just gave me the last puzzle piece and I absolutely love it! Probably spend more than five hours a day on my own little space with a friendly community that truly cares.Leonie@koyu@kopimi.spaceI'm personally addicted to Mastodon, for me it's like if Facebook or Twitter had a friendly version— where I can discuss things with people around the world about every single thing they love. If there's a subreddit for everything, of course there's also a Mastodon community for everything: I've got one profile for sharing art, another one for casual conversation and another one for politics.guedes@guedes@mastodon.socialIndependent alwaysMastodon is free and open-source software developed by a non-profit organization.
