Will you be switching?

Looks like hosting your own Mastodon server is going to cost less than paying for a blue checkmark on Twitter. Except when you pay to host your own Mastodon server, you own your data, identity, and social graph fully.Mastodon isn't as simple to sign up to as Twitter and users will have to learn a whole new language to navigate the sites.

Instead of one single website, Mastodon is a network of thousands of websites known as “instances” or servers. These instances can communicate with each other without having to go through a central site because they are federated.1. Download the Mastodon ap via Google Play or the Apple store. The network can also be accessed via your browser.There are some servers that you can join right away but you may have to join the waiting list for some instances.

3. There are some ground rules you need to follow within your server including no discriminatory or explicit language or posting any content that could incite violence for example.5. You can then navigate freely, find people to follow and post your 'toots' those within your server and not the entire Fedi, unlike its Twitter counterpart.
